lyrics

Me and Mr. Loneliness

You say stay away
I don’t want to see your face again
So tell me when I can finally turn around
I say why, oh why?
Just put me in the ground to die alone
Where they can find me when it’s your turn to be lowered down
Lowered down

Me and Mr. Loneliness are hanging out today
He and I are pretty good friends
Sometimes I ask him what he’s got to say
But I think that he’ll be quiet ‘til the end

You and all that weight you carry are pretty much the same
You and him together all the time
Do you remember in the first place when he came?
At that point someone else was by your side
By your side

But now you say
Stay away
I don’t want to see your face again
So tell me when I can finally turn around
I say why, oh why?
Just put me in the ground to die alone
Where they can find me when it’s your turn to be lowered down
Lowered down

Look at all theses questions flying through my mind
Who was I to think I’d figure out
Where are you going, what is it that you’ll find
Or why did you decide without a doubt?
Without a doubt

But now you say
Stay away
I don’t want to see your face again
So tell me when I can finally turn around

I say why, oh why?
Just put me in the ground to die alone
Where they can find me when it’s your turn to be lowered down
Lowered down
