lyrics

Lie beside me in the dark
Feel the sense of isolation
Silent blows have left their marks
Purple hearts of disaffection
Happy home and open arms
Turned into a gilded prison
Damn the comfort of your charms
For holding back the change of season

And we should know
The emptiness will grow
We played our cards with open eyes
But came up just a little short and late
And in this sorry state we stay alone together, alone

Standing up while falling down
Bruised and battered love is dying
Twist my smile into a frown
Share the anguish I’ve been hiding
Bleary eyed insomniac
Gets to do a lot of thinking
Drive the knife into your back
I guess you didn’t see it coming

And we should know
The emptiness will grow
We played our cards with open eyes
But came up just a little short and late
And in this sorry state we walk alone together, alone

A lonely life is better lived alone
Without the ghost of “might have been”
Hanging on to what is gone
Will never let the healing begin

No no no no
And we don't know
Who'll be the first to go
We played our cards with open eyes
But came up just a little short and late
And in this sorry state we die alone together, alone
