By Myself Video (MV)

In the same spot I was
A few years ago
I'm complacent but not
Comfortable
And clearly it shows
Won't leave me alone
That was then, this is now
And I'm smarter somehow
You don't know my perseverance
Or what I did to escape from this ghost
My highs or my lows
The life that I chose

I don't need your arms to hold me
And I don't need your help
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
Because baby I'm doing just fine
By myself

I'm a mess, incomplete
This is obvious
Yet you stand here and scream
In your lush cockiness
Good god you're gorgeous
But I'm far too cautious
You'll recall years from now
That one night, threw me out
You failed me with your excuses
Oh babe I swear
What are you talking about
If you see me around
We can't work this out

I don't need your arms to hold me
And I don't need your help
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
I don't need you condescending
And I don't need your pills
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
Because baby I'm doing just fine
By myself

I can't sell myself to you
Either you want me or don't
So what's the point if you won't
I spent a year and a half wondering who I am
I just embarrassed myself, this wasn't part of the plan
But now I can't see your face
So I'm confident

I don't need your arms to hold me
And I don't need your help
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
Because baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
I don't need your condescending
And I don't need your pills
Baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
Because baby I'm doing just fine
By myself
