Lone Ranger

Maybe I'm selfish, call me see-through

But I'm debating if I really need to

Tie down to someone forever

Sure, I get lonely sometimes

I miss being together, but baby

When I roam from city to city

I let the highway and the crowd

Fill the hunger that's in me

Fill me up with fireworks and tell me I'm skinny

I could soak up the fire and the buzz that it gives me

Long nights, stay up late

Drink the sky, meditate

Open eyes, sun roof

Give me miles, give me truth

Sometimes I get high

Sometimes I get low

But I'm calm as can be

In a room full of strangers

But oh my, don't try to get close

I'm just gonna leave

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger

(Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na...)

I'm a lone ranger

I'm a lion, I'm a tiger

I'm a caged bird, I'm on fire

Got these paper wings but they hold the air

Get too close to somebody but I don't stay there

Much less brave then I admit

Much more scared then they all think

But I'm protecting this organ in my chest

'Cause the blood, sweat and tears

They can make quite a mess

Open eyes, open roof

Give me miles, give me truth

Sometimes I get high

Sometimes I get low

But I'm calm as can be

In a room full of strangers

But oh my, don't try to get close

I'm just gonna leave

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger

(Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na...)

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger

I don't want to get broken, baby

I don't want to get broken, baby

I don't want to get broken, baby

Cut open babe, cut open, baby

I don't want to get broken, baby

I don't want to get broken, baby

I don't want to get broken, baby

Cut open babe, cut open, baby

Sometimes I get high

Sometimes I get low

But I'm calm as can be

In a room full of strangers

But oh my, don't try to get close

I'm just gonna leave

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger

(Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na...)

Sometimes I get high

(Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na...)

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger

But oh my, don't try to get close

I'm just going to leave

'Cause baby, I'm a lone ranger
