Alone
In my home
I left a party early tonight
The crowd was too loud
Can't stand their minds and their cheers
I can't stand their records in my ears
Like a little girl with her mammie's make up
I'm trying hard to be brave
I'm lying flat on the bed
My heart is heavy as lead And I don't like these shoes
Lord, I got to find me somebody
I got to find me a friend
I got to undo the consequences of all the months I spent
All by myself
People tell me come what may
But what's the price to pay
For fooling around?
They tell you what to do
But when I'm missing you
They're never around
I'm running out of patience
but most of all I'm running out of luck
The time it takes to break up is much longer than the little time
You look
To do me good
Alone
On the phone
Lord, Somebody's talking to me
But i don't seem to hear
My world is fading to black
Oh how I want you back
I almost hit a lady at the store today
She was laughing so loud
She sucked my soul from me
But i just ran out of there
And I kept running for miles
Until I finally tripped back into the hell of this house
I'm so lonely I can't eat or sleep
I'm so hungry for you love and it makes me sick to be
My inside's shaking like a leaf on a tree
I can't even stand on my own...
People tell me come what may
But what's the price to pay
For fooling around?
They tell you what to do
But when I'm missing you
They're never around
People tell you come what may
But what they never say
Is coming around
They all tell me don't be blue
But I'm not blue for you
It's an infinite down
It's an infinite down
It's an infinite down
It's an infinite down
It's an infinite down
In my home
