Drinking Alone

Who are these people that I don’t know, and where are they when I get low

‘Cause we scratch and we claw, to feel like we belong, but in truth we’re on our own

And where are these places we like to hide, hands ‘round a glass tryna outsmart our pride

All these restless minds, so desperate to find, somewhere to call home

But at least we know, were not drinking alone, were not drinking alone

In the weekend crowd it’s so hot and loud, and that is how I know

So what are these things that I can’t say, I know they’re true but the words slip away

In these sleepless nights, but those cheap stage lights, tell me everything will be okay

But why do I sing like nothings wrong, are these words just hope, getting me through the dawn

Like something profound, buried deep underground, until the earth gave way

But at least, I can say, I’m not drinking alone, I’m not drinking alone,

In the weekend crowd it’s so hot and loud, and that is how I know, that I’m not, no I’m not

So I’ll pay the tab and let you drive, so we both make it home alive

Just call whoever it is that’s missing you

And when the sun breaks through the blinds, we’ll know what we have left behind

And face the day, like the ugly truth

That were drinking alone, yeah I’m drinking alone

In this crowded room, I’m still thinking of you, and that is how I know

That I’m just, yeah I’m just, drinking alone.
