This Is Why

Hey, would you want to go with me to a party
It might be dumb, and I don't know anyone
Sure, I know there will be nothing there for me
But let's go anyway, I'll drive you home when we're done

We could sleep, but haven't you heard we're all dying
Living fast is much more fun
And I think deep down we know there's no point in trying
But all we know how to do is run, run, run, run, run

And this is why I cannot be alone anymore
I miss the time when I knew what my time was for

Oh my God, is it me, or is it getting harder
To believe you were ever really anyone
I'm not sure, but I think I used to be much smarter
Back when I used to walk instead of run

And I could say what you want to hear if it would stop you crying
That way might be much more fun
And I would tell you the truth, but I would be lying
'Cause even I don't know what I've done, done, done, done, done

And this is why I cannot be around anyone
I miss the time when I knew how to be alone
