When you're not here and I'm all alone
When the feelings that love is needing
We're still all alone, you know
A tough, handsome boy in the modern world
Asked me what you think about it
Like I thought

And I'm an untouchable force
You don't know who you're trying to fight
I might be more than that, but, oh, I

I did it by myself, I'm gonna do it
And that's always been my purpose, yeah
I really am strong, but no one can touch me
And I always took the easy way out
And never doubted myself
I did it by myself, I did it by myself
Nobody but me knows how to love me
Nobody cared about that
Now everybody wants me
Nothing you can say to me is gonna get to me
Everywhere I go I'll say
I did it by myself, I did it by myself

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it by myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it by myself)
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh, I did it by myself
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, (myself, myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I did it by myself

I won't sell my soul
I won't stop being who I am
I won't wait for the doors to open
I've been running from them, hiding from them
They all thought I'd give up, thought I'd fall
They can't take this from me, they never will

And I'm an untouchable force
You don't know who you're trying to fight
I might be more than that, and, oh, I (I)

I did it by myself, I'm gonna do it
And that's always been my purpose (my own purpose), yeah
I really am strong, but no one can touch me
And I always took the easy way out
And never doubted myself (myself)
I did it by myself, I did it by myself

Nobody but me knows how to love me (nobody, nobody, nobody else) nobody cared about that
Now everybody wants me
Nothing you can say to me is gonna get to me (nobody, nobody, nobody else)
Everywhere I go I'll say, I did it by myself
I did it by myself (for myself)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it by myself) (I did it by myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it for myself)
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh, I did it by myself
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, (myself, myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I did it by myself, woahi

I'm an independent person, nigga
Don't act like you do it right (don't act like you do it right), I'm diving in this deep sea
Too many questions and too many answers
You let me down, but I did it I did-did-did-did-did

I did it by myself, I gonna do it
And that's always been my purpose (my own purpose), yeah
I really am strong, but no one can touch me
And I always took the easy way out
And never doubted myself (myself)
I did it by myself, I did it by myself

Nobody but me knows how to love me (nobody, nobody, nobody else), nobody cared about that
Now everybody wants me
Nothing you can say to me is gonna get to me (nobody, nobody, nobody else)
Everywhere I go I'll say
I did it by myself, I did it by myself (by myself)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it by myself) (I did it for myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it by myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I did it for myself)
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh, I did it for myself
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, (myself, myself)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I did it for myself
