Lyrics:

I don’t like being alone

Home alone,
Lashing out again
Told you so
Written in my skin
I’m not ok
But I’m trying to be

Style it out
When I pick up the phone
I let you down
Every time that you go
I’m not the best
But I’m trying to be

But how when I’m here chained to the ground
Throw me to lost and found
Cos I don’t like being alone

Criticise my own company
My blue eyes are somehow turning to green
I’ll be fine
Always trying to be
Roll the credits
Too many silent nights
Unexpected
From the flashing of lights
I’ll forget it
I’m just trying to see

But how when I’m here chained to the ground
Throw me to lost and found
Cos I don’t like being alone
I don’t like being alone
I don’t like being alone

I’ve got a week left in the city I left to you
So I’ll be here bleeding you out until I’m blue
I know I’m prone to guessing all the talks about me
Trust you to still be making me feel I’m the fool

Thankfully I don’t think that you would recognise
You couldn’t even try to pick me out a line
Plus you make sure that every little thing gets back to me
Maybe you’d just never have guessed that I’d be fine

Cos before you I know I hated my own space
I thought that you could make it better, my mistake
Cos I would rather have to deal with week long pain
Oh I would be alone forever, any day
