Otep - I Stand Alone Lyrics

Loud and proud
Loud and proud

Alone, in the crowd

Sometimes I feel more dead than alive
Sometimes I feel I can do it this time
Sometimes I feel so empty inside
Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind
Sometimes I feel like trash cast aside
Sometimes I feel suffocated by the lies

I want to burn it
I want to hurt them
The spider readies the web

May the bridges I burn light my way
Isolated in defiance, I will remain
May the bridges I burn light my way
I will never comply, I'll forever defy

I'm strange
I'm odd
I'm queer
I'm flawed
I'm one of a kind

I'm strange
I'm odd
I'm queer
I'm flawed
I am divine

Alone, in the crowd

Sometimes I feel nothing at all
Sometimes I feel everything is my fault
Sometimes I feel the hate break my mind
Sometimes I feel they deserve it this time
Sometimes I feel my scars are for rent
Sometimes I feel my hands around their necks

I want to crush them
I want to hurt them
The spider readies the web

May the bridges I burn light my way
Isolated in defiance, I will remain
May the bridges I burn light my way
I will never comply, I'll forever defy

I'm strange
I'm odd
I'm queer
I'm flawed
I'm one of a kind

I'm strange
I'm odd
I'm queer
I'm flawed
I am divine

Don't let the heavy drapes of the world drag you down

I don't wanna be complete
I don't wanna be content
I don't wanna be perfect
I don't wanna be like them

Loud and proud
Loud and proud

I don't wanna be complete
I don't wanna be content
I don't wanna be perfect
I don't wanna be like them

May the bridges I burn light my way
Isolated in defiance, I will remain
May the bridges I burn light my way
I will never comply, I'll forever defy

Loud and proud
Loud and proud
