You’re On Your Own, Kid-Taylor Swift Lyrics

“You’re On Your Own, Kid”

[Verse 1]

Summer went away, still, the yearning stays

I play it cool with the best of them

I wait patiently, he’s gonna notice me

It’s okay, we’re the best of friends

Anyway

I hear it in your voice, you’re smoking with your boys

I touch my phone as if it’s your face

I didn’t choose this town, I dream of getting out

There’s just one who could make me stay

All my days

[Pre-Chorus]

From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes

I waited ages to see you there

I search the party of better bodies

Just to learn that you never cared

[Chorus]

You’re on your own, kid

You always have been

[Verse 2]

I see the great escape, so long, Daisy May

I picked the petals, he loves me not

Something different bloomed, writing in my room

I play my songs in the parking lot

I’ll run away

[Pre-Chorus]

From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes

I called a taxi to take me there

I search the party of better bodies

Just to learn that my dreams aren’t rare

[Chorus]

You’re on your own, kid

You always have been

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes

I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this

I hosted parties and starved my body

Like I’d be saved by a perfect kiss

The jokes weren’t funny, I took the money

My friends from home don’t know what to say

I looked around in a blood-soaked gown

And I saw something they can’t take away

‘Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned

Everything you lose is a step you take

So, make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it

You’ve got no reason to be afraid

[Chorus]

You’re on your own, kid

Yeah, you can face this

You’re on your own, kid

You always have been
