  • Maybe I'm selfish call me see-through
    But I'm debating if I really need to
    Be tied, tied to someone forever
    Sure I get lonely sometimes and miss being together but hey!
    I wanna roam from city to city
    Let the highway and the crowd fill the hunger that's in me
    Fill me up with fireworks and tell me I'm skinny
    I could soak up the fire in the buzz they give me

    Ooh ooh
    Long nights, stay up late
    Drink the sky, meditate

    Ooh ooh
    Open eyes, sunroof
    Give me miles, give me truth

    Sometimes I get high, sometimes I get low
    But I'm calm as can be in a room full of strangers
    But oh my, don't try to get close
    I'm just gonna leave 'cause baby I'm a lone ranger

    Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na
    Nana na, na, na, nana, na, na na (yeah I'm a lone ranger)

    I'm a lion, I'm a tiger
    I'm a caged-bird, I'm on fire
    Got these paper wings, but they don't hold the air
    Get so close to somebody, but I don't stay there
    Much less brave than I admit
    Much more scared than they all think
    But I'm protecting the organ in my chest
    'Cause the blood, sweat, and tears they can make quite a mess

    Ooh ooh
    Open eyes, open roof
    Give me miles, give me truth

    Sometimes I get high, sometimes I get low
    But I'm calm as can be in a room full of strangers
    But oh my, don't try to get close
    I'm just gonna leave 'cause baby I'm a lone ranger

    Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na
    Nana na, na, na, nana, na, na na ('cause baby I'm a lone ranger)

    I don't want to get broken baby
    I don't want to get broken baby
    I don't want to get broken babe
    Cut open babe, cut open babe

    I don't want to get broken baby
    I don't want to get broken baby
    I don't want to get broken babe
    Cut open babe, cut open babe

    Sometimes I get high, sometimes I get low
    But I'm calm as can be in a room full of strangers
    But oh my, don't try to get close
    I'm just gonna leave 'cause baby I'm a lone ranger

    Na, na, na, nana, na, na, na
    Nana na, na, na, nana, na, na na
    Sometimes I get high (na, na, na, nana, na, na, na)
    (Nana na, na, na, nana, na, na na)
    'Cause baby I'm a lone ranger

    But oh my, don't try to get close
    I'm just gonna leave 'cause baby I'm a lone ranger Writer/s: BONNIE BAKER, BRIAN WEST, RACHEL PLATTEN
