Yesterday the odds were stacked
in favor of my expectations
flyin' above the rest,
never fallin' from the nest
tuesday came and went
and now i'm in a little situation
maybe it's for the best
i can live alone, i guess

chorus:
maybe i can stand alone
maybe i'm strong as stone
even though the bird has flown
maybe he'll fly on home

forgive me if i'm keeping you apart
from better conversation
i'm hung up on all my doubt
trying to sort the whole thing out
tell me that i'm smart enough
to deal with all the information
spinning inside my head
every word he ever said

(chorus x2)
