Dying Alone

First things first, everybody knows how the story goes
Boy falls from glory then he starts to lose control
Yeah he lost control
And everybody knows what happens when you start to lose control
And if you don't then I pray that you'll never know
But you lose your hope

There ain't no pill or therapy to save him from his demons
There ain't no remedy
Every time he looks over his shoulder
They'll be haunting him
Like a ghost behind him real close
The boy is never alone

Which is pretty crazy since he's always on his own
He's dying alone, nobody's ever home
Nobody's at home

Second things second, yeah you think he's on the mend
But he just plays pretend as he's dying for his sins
Yeah for his sins
And nobody knows that boy behind the note, a pen and some paper and a map to find home
He's going home

There ain't no pill or therapy to save him from his demons
There ain't no remedy
Every time he looks over his shoulder
They'll be haunting him
Like a ghost behind him real close
The boy is never alone
Which is pretty crazy since he's always on his own
He's dying alone, nobody's ever home
Nobody's at home

Someone help him, he's not himself again
They're not helping, I think they're selfish
Someone help him, he's in hell again
He's unraveling, he's unraveling

There ain't no pill or therapy to save him from his demons
There ain't no remedy
Every time he looks over his shoulder
They'll be haunting him
Like a ghost behind him real close
The boy is never alone
Which is pretty crazy since he's always on his own
Nobody's ever home, he's dying all alone
Nobody's at home

He's dying alone, on his own
Cause nobody's home, no one's at home
He's dying alone, like he knew he would
Like you think he should, he's dying alone
