If I Have To Be Alone

Todd Rundgren

Transposer:

Intro verse 1 If I have to be alone Then I should make my mind serene After all you’re born alone you die alone You might as well spend every moment in between alone But if I have to be alone Then it will be on my own terms I can never talk about it ever show it Even though the world is watching while I squirm alone Pre-Chorus 1 And your bleeding heart friends say "isn’t it sad? " Then they all go make love While you go insane. insane! It drives you mad! mad! My mind I love my mind And if no one can feel the same I’m a computer with a name And I’ve got no one else to blame If I have to be alone verse 2 And if nobody understands That special creature that is me And if they fail to see the me I see Then no one else knows truly what it means to be alone Pre-Chorus 2 Maybe once a lifetime you lose your will Then you can let down your guard But they cower in fear. in fear It makes you ill! Ill! My heart my burning heart And if no one will quench the flame I’m not obliged to do the same And then they’ll have to share the blame Because I have to be alone Because I have to be alone But I don’t want to be alone Outro

La chanson évoque la solitude et la lutte intérieure que l'on ressent face aux attentes des autres et à la compréhension. Elle reflète un besoin de trouver la paix en soi malgré les difficultés de l'isolement. L'artiste souligne que même si l’on naît et meurt seul, il est important de vivre selon ses propres conditions, sans se laisser influencer par ceux qui semblent mener une vie parfaite. Il exprime également la frustration de ne pas être compris et le poids que cela représente, tout en s'accrochant à son identité et à ses émotions. Ce combat entre le désir d'être connecté aux autres et le sentiment d'abandon est central dans cette œuvre.
