You don't know the first thing about me, no You don't know what I think about ya There's no way to tell you this easily and leave you be peacefully I'll get on the first flight out of here Find a way to disappear I'm not turning around I don't care if there's no round of applause When I'm up in first place all by myself, yeah First place all by myself Maybe my confidence finally catches up to me I'm only seconds ahead of my insecurities You don't know the distance I've gone The fear of loss is different up front I'll fly home and visit once a year Bring you back some cheap plastic souvenirs I'm not turning around I don't care if there's no round of applause When I'm up in first place all by myself, yeah First place all by myself I wanna win for once I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win for once I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win by myself I've been getting homesick living in my hometown Emotional breakdown, look for an escape route I remember sunburned days out on the playground Where I got my first kiss, where I learned what sex is Maybe I'm ready, maybe I'm ahead of myself I need to spend some time alone so I can figure it out I'm not gonna stop, and turn it around I don't care if there's no round of applause When I'm up in first place all by myself, yeah First place all by myself I wanna win for once I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win for once I wanna win for once, yeah I wanna win by myself
