standing alone
Singular and unsupported
Standing alone describes something or someone isolated, unsupported, or independent.
A building standing alone sits apart from others.
A person standing alone at a party has no company.
Figuratively, an argument or claim that stands alone lacks corroboration: The evidence stood alone, with nothing to support it.
