Alone

ALONE

Falling down a rabbit hole

Shedding tears in intervals

Just to drown out the moonlight

Sympathy in minor keys

Fresh bleach and misery

Shadow boxes of what you used to have

Oh, if you could see what I see

What you desperately need

But you believe what you want

You don’t even want my help

You can do it by yourself

But I’m still here watching you breakdown

Wanna do it on your own

But I know you know it’s a dead end, long and winding road

There’s no better off in better off alone

Pillar of society

Hide behind what’s underneath

And don’t expose the picture-perfect lies

Be the man I thought you were

I know the truth is gonna hurt

There’s no other way around it now

You don’t even want my help

You can do it by yourself

But I’m still here watching you breakdown

Wanna do it on your own

But I know you know it’s a dead end, long and winding road

There’s no better off in better off alone

Oh, if you could see what I see

What you so desperately need

But you believe what you want

You don’t even want my help

You can do it by yourself

But I’m still here watching you breakdown

Wanna do it on your own

But I know you know it’s a dead end, long and winding road

There’s no better off in better off alone
