When she cried
It felt like her last tear for nothing
It's her life, a toss of the coin
For everything, yeah

Oh, the girl began to see
That you don't need just any man, oh no
And her pride is a kiss goodbye
On graduation day

She always said, she'd be happier alone
She always said, she won't be anybody's second hand rose
She's scared, she dares
She'd be a rose alone

Daddy says, you can't pay the rent
On a fairy tale
It's her play, she'd rather be free
Than be safe in jail
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/m/mrbig/a+rose+alone_20822980.html ]
Oh, make it or break it
You do what you gotta do 'cause you can, oh yeah
Taste the wine, bittersweet
But the bite still gets you high

She always said, she'd be happier alone
She always said, she won't be anybody's second hand rose
She always said, she'd be happier, happier alone
She's scared, she dares, she'd be a rose alone

Somebody
Hey, hey, hey

Taste the wine, bittersweet
But the bite still gets you high

She always said, she'd be happier alone, yeah
She always said, she won't be anybody's secondhand rose, yeah
She always said, she'd be happier, happier alone
She's scared, she dares, she'd be a rose alone, yeah
