The Lonely Talking - Alice Wallace

What just happened?

I think I lost my mind

Counted down the last fourteen days

Two weeks of wasted time

Hands at 10 and 2

Holding on to what is left

I catch a glimpse of your back in my rear view

Like a punch in the gut with every step

That wasn’t me, it was the lonely talking

She shows up every now and then

The girl you see got lost in something you said

This isn’t what I wanted, it’s just the lonely talking

Waves of wanting

Swaying 'cross your kitchen floor

The slightest wind and I give in

As you steer into the perfect storm

Why did I leave and why did you let me

Drive away in a whiskey-soaked blur?

Didn’t I seem strong on the outside?

'Cause I was trying damn hard to hide the hurt

That wasn’t me, it was the lonely talking

She shows up every now and then

The girl you see got lost in something you said

This isn’t what I wanted, it’s just the lonely talking

She’s telling me that I really need this

Suddenly you’re the only one

She says that I don’t deserve this

When will I learn that I will never find someone?

That wasn’t me, it was the lonely talking

She shows up every now and then

The girl you see got lost in something you said

This isn’t what I wanted, it’s just the lonely talking
