Lyrics

Alone for Now

[Verse 1]

Is it this air that turns me cold?

This time of year I feel alone

The wind blows and dries my skin

These people keep to themselves

All living in their own hell

I need to get out of the place I'm in

[Chorus]

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody

Leave me alone for now

I've grown sick of every face that I've known

This keeps me up at night

[Verse 2]

See outside but you can't see in

My words don't penetrate the skin

Nothing will ever seem to get through

Walk past your problems and your fears

The ones you love are left in tears

Nothing will ever seem to phase you

[Chorus]

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody

Leave me alone for now

I've grown sick of every face that I've known

This keeps me up at night

[Verse 3]

I can't let go, I'll break, I'll fold

It's got to be this air that's killing me

I know alone is all I've known

And it's old and I'm cold, yeah, but it doesn't phase me

[Chorus]

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody

Leave me alone for now

I've grown sick of every face that I've known

This keeps me up at night
