Ok Being Lonely

I was so scared of not
 Having you by my side
I would rather be unhappy than alone
I held on to what we
Had for far too long.
Knowing the whole that this was all wrong
Now i realize how much i sacrificed just from fear
year after year 
Don't know why i was scared to be alone
Thinking back your love is all i had known
But now that you're gone i can finally see
That i'm gonna be okay 
Being lonely 
I used to think that love was 
All that mattered
But i found out my freedom was worth more than gold
Letting you go made me feel alive and i 
I don't need anyone but me to thrive  
Now i realize how much i sacrificed just from fear
year after year 
Don't know why i was scared to be alone
Thinking back your love is all i had known
But now that you're gone i can finally see
That i'm gonna be okay 
Being lonely 
The weight of the world lifted off my shoulders
Embracing this independence 
No one to tie me down
There's no surrender
Embracing life's sweet splendor 
Don't know why i was scared to be alone
Thinking back your love is all i had known
But now that you're gone i can finally see
That i'm gonna be okay
