​alone at the Live Dream

[Intro]
I was a girl when you met me
A woman when you left me alone
I was softer when you met me
Sharpened when you left me alone
Flashbacks to a father saluting his daughter
Leaving through the back door, the only thing he taught her
"We are never the same when someone rips us straight from the earth and runs
Not even the decency to walk away from the slaughter"
But the roots grow back stronger
The blooms blossom taller
But etched in our skin and scraped in our bones
Is that the ones we loved, they left us on our own
The ones we loved, they left us alone

[Verse 1]
Is it wrong that I wanna see you cry?
Haven't felt a thing from you in quite a while
You could steal one, you could beg or borrow
Anything but sitting there, emotionless and hollow
After all, we've been through hell
You can give me more than just an empty shell
Can't believe how far we fell
I'm not feeling it but I keep saying that I'm doin' well

[Chorus]
And I'm so done with lying
Done with solo crying
And I'm so done with trying
Alone, alone
Alone, alone

[Verse 2]
Slipped through cracks that we couldn't fill
Used our hundred-dollar words but couldn't pay the bill
We said forever, set rules like never
Talked all the talk but we couldn't walk it together
After all, we've been through hell

[Chorus]
And I'm so done with lying
Done with solo crying
And I'm so done with trying
Alone, alone
Alone, alone

[Bridge]
Not just emotionless, maybe you're clueless
You couldn't handle all this
Tired of trying alone, I say that I miss you, but you're already gone
And I've been through hell
And I won't stick around and turn into an empty shell

[Chorus]
I'm so done with lying
Done with solo crying
I'm so done with trying
Alone, alone
Alone, alone
