Gravel to Tempo Lyrics
Catch my name for kicks
Thinking I would be right by your side
I don't feel adequate
Thinking I'm a monster in disguise
We've gone down every list
Stuck but I have got to begin to resist
Caught up with the fact that life will be dark
But can we handle being kids?
I'll do this my way
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I gotta be on my own
Try to stand the test
But the night is crawling through my eyes
I thought I was depressed
But I think I just needed to cry
I'll do this my way
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I gotta be on my own
I'll do this my way
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Thinking I would be right by your side
I don't feel adequate
Thinking I'm a monster in disguise
Stuck but I have got to begin to resist
Caught up with the fact that life will be dark
But can we handle being kids?
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I gotta be on my own
But the night is crawling through my eyes
I thought I was depressed
But I think I just needed to cry
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I gotta be on my own
Don't matter if I break
I gotta be on my own
Lost in this feeling
Don't ever need a reason
I gotta be on my own
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This song is about realizing that the only validation you need is from yourself. This empowering anthem is all about self-validation.
In an interview with Fuse, Hayley said “So many people, we are dependent on approval, from your parents or your crushes or your friends, and as you grow older—I’m not like this wise man—you become wiser and realize, ‘Oh, I just need to love myself.’ And then nobody else’s opinion really remembers.”
