i live alone

i was 22

alone with nothing to do and i couldn't sleep

'cause all those cold days returned with their old ways of causing

new apathy

i live alone

i live alone

she was 21

wishing she lived by the sun

the sand and the sea

so i suggested she'd move out fast and not be the last

to leave and be free

i live alone

i live alone

i live alone

i live alone

sweet summer day

i'm so afraid

so take me away

we were 17

longing to live in between

the earth and the stars

so i suggested we'd grow up fast and not be the last

and look where we are

with no connection i saw your reflection at home

in my bedroom mirror

and i felt young again when i saw what we could've been

in all of those years

i live alone

i live alone

i live alone

i live alone
