Born Alone Die Alone

We were born alone

And we die alone

No, oh oh

What a way to go

Now I'm on my own

But I'm not sorry

No

Look at me go

Look at me high and low

Look at me picking myself back up

From the underground (oh)

I've died a few times before

I know what it's like

When I can't see the light

I find a light of my own

Sh-sh-sh-shine like a diamond

Like a lonely diamond

We were born alone

And we die alone

No, no, no no no

What a way to go

Now I'm on my own (now I'm on my own)

But I'm not sorry

No

Nobody's your friend

At the start or at the end, no

You can't take 'em with you when you're dead

No

I'm a rebel, I'm a fighter

A brave outsider

The crowd gets thin

When the noose gets tighter

Oh (sh-shine like a diamond)

'Cause I'm a lonely diamond, oh

We were born alone

And we die alone

No, no, no no no

What a way to go

Now I'm on my own (now I'm on my own)

But I'm not sorry

No

Shine like a diamond

(No, no, no)

(Sh-sh-shine)

Like a lonely diamond

We were born alone

And we die alone

No, no, no no no

What a way to go

Now I'm on my own (now I'm on my own)

But I'm not sorry

No
