Carried you across the nation

My modesty wouldn't cave in

Until now I'd hold my breath

But no need when you broke the pact

I'd open doors, you'd close them

Behind when I wasn't looking

I'd clean up your mess

Now I get to sweep you under the rug

[Chorus]

So I'll erase your name

Start again

Make it clear

So there's no more question

Words are empty

Now they know

Erase your name

And do it again

On my own, my own, my own

Do it again on my own, my own

I'd have ideas, you'd claim them

Behind if I wasn't looking

You're colder than winter

But now I'm smiling under the sun

[Chorus]

Without you in my way

Never thought I'd see the day I'd be on my own, my own

Do it again on my own, my own

A picture of me standing next to you

Woke to find I'm a cheap headline

After years I spent breaking stereotypes

Now my skin's stained

I'll shed and do it again

Without you in my way

Never thought I'd see the day

Without you in my way

Do it again on my own, my own

[Chorus]
