The Alone, Together - Quiet Company

«So tell me if you still believe in love like you used to»

Well, I don’t know if I want to

It just doesn’t make much sense in light of current events

«So you’re just moving your allegiances to bitterness?!»

No, I didn’t say that

You’re putting words in my mouth

And I’ve got enough of my own that I need to get out

What I mean is that I’m done singing songs about love

Like I know the first thing about getting along

It’s in my head

And I can’t seem to shake it!

Oh-oh-oh-oh

It’s in my head

«So tell me, don’t you worry you’ll end up dying alone?»

Of course, well are you saying that you think that you won’t?

Well, I’ve got some bad news: Death is coming for you!

And you will be alone when you shake his hand

I think I know what you mean

I think I know what you mean

It’s really living alone that’s the nightmare

I wanna fuck every woman, wanna kill every man

But I’m finding the whole thing too exhausting to care

«Get it through your head!»

x4

«Your love is dead!»

x3

And maybe I could admit

That I am so full of shit

What I really want is that white picket fence

What my body was built for

What I thought that I had

And maybe I’ve seen too many movies

But I just can’t forget

How the idea used to move me

How it would fill up my chest

And I’ve got to take it apart for myself

I know I’ll never be happy

If I am waiting for somebody else

To come along and complete me

She was a song in my memory

I forgot how to sing when I wrote it down

Now its every lyric escapes me

I don’t think it’ll ever come back to me now x3

I don’t think that she’ll ever come back to me
