lyrics

i’m sitting alone, no one answers their phones/at home at the bar, how did i get so far/no one knows my name, but they’re not to blame/i offer to dance, and you take a chance/with a worn out soul with a heart for a brain/maybe if i’m lucky, you won’t be the same/i just want you to stay/chorus 1/i’m feeling lonesome, so i think i’ll go/our time is done, so i’ll hit the road/i know you’re not gone yet, and neither am i/but it’s just me, why would you even try/verse 2/salvation is free, but it’s not easy/we try to get rich, stay healthy and fit/i own two cars, but i’m not that far/from the american dream, or so it seems/what about you, you seem uptight/that’s kinda like me, and that’s downright/terrifying, how it seems we could possibly be together/chorus 1/chorus 2/so many people saying so many things/and every night, one always rings/in my head, in my heart, and on my chattering teeth/you didn’t mean to steal me, but you’re still a thief to me/oh you’re still my thief/bridge/cause when i go home/everyone asks are you still alone/and i smile and say, i’m ok, i’m ok, i just smile and i’m ok/ they see right through me, and i wish they didn’t/chorus 1/chorus 2
