How to be Alone
Day one I wake up
With no weight lifted off of my shoulders
Like I need more closure
Like I'm telling myself we're not over
Put on my makeup
Cause I have never felt so naked
And I can't stop shaking
Now it sinks in
I'm on my own
And I've been told
That this is when
I'll find myself, but
Do I even want to
If it means not being with you
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again, to be alone
Soon enough I'll get drunk
Cause I know how I act when I'm hurting
I'm sure I'll try to ignore it
Find some hands and romance to feel needed
And maybe six months from now
When you cross my mind I'll be ready
The thought of you won't be heavy
But for now
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again
I'm on my own and I've been told
That this is when I'll find myself
But do I even want to
Do I even want to
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again, to be alone
With no weight lifted off of my shoulders
Like I need more closure
Like I'm telling myself we're not over
Put on my makeup
Cause I have never felt so naked
And I can't stop shaking
Now it sinks in
I'm on my own
And I've been told
That this is when
I'll find myself, but
Do I even want to
If it means not being with you
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again, to be alone
Soon enough I'll get drunk
Cause I know how I act when I'm hurting
I'm sure I'll try to ignore it
Find some hands and romance to feel needed
And maybe six months from now
When you cross my mind I'll be ready
The thought of you won't be heavy
But for now
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again
I'm on my own and I've been told
That this is when I'll find myself
But do I even want to
Do I even want to
How do I fall asleep when I can't breathe
Cause I got a lot of issues only you know about
How do I drive home and avoid that road
Cause if I'm not being careful I'll end up at your house
I'm relearning how to be alone again
To be alone again, to be alone
