[Verse 1]
Who do you do your hair for in the morning?
Did you buy that dress for someone else?
No one compliments you
Do you feel like you're just see through?
If no one sees you, you don't see yourself
If you don't love yourself
How the hell you're gonna love someone else, someone else?
'Cause you're never gonna find another love
Like you have with yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
For somebody else?
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin' for yourself?
[Chorus]
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up higher
You know how to light your own fire
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up
Livin' for yourself
[Verse 2]
Why do we wait till no one else is watching?
To be ourselves, oh God, it's so exhausting
Well, fuck this need for validation
Speak our minds, no hesitation
The only thing that's real is how you feel
If you don't love yourself
How the hell you're gonna love someone else, someone else?
'Cause you're never gonna find another love
Like you have with yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
For somebody else?
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin'? (Are you livin'?)
Are you livin' for yourself?
[Chorus]
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up higher
You know how to light your own fire
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up
Livin' for yourself
[Bridge]
Livin' for yourself
Don't define yourself by the people around you
If they disappear, then there's no one to ground you
Baby, there's a beauty in solitude
Get in, get into the mood
Don't define yourself by the people around you
If they disappear, then there's no one to ground you
Baby, there's a beauty in solitude
Get in, get into the mood, yeah
[Chorus]
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up higher
You know how to light your own fire
Never be lonely if you got you
Might seem scary, but you're so good
You don't need praise to lift you up
Livin' for yourself
[Outro]
You're gonna live, babe, for yourself
You're gonna live, babe, for yourself
