Alone

This place
Why would anybody wanna stay?
Out of all the choices you could make
You chose to spend your days
Riding these trains and subways

Yeah, I know
Just exactly what you would say
I wouldn’t understand what makes it great
But my dear, I'm so sad to say
That I can’t wait to leave this place

When there is nowhere else for you to go
Don’t call on me
These streets and empty bars will guide you home

'Cause I know just what it means to leave
Tell me when you go to sleep
Do you ever think of me?
Don’t you ever wish you weren’t alone?

Some days
I still wonder if we’ll meet again
And would we hit it off or just pretend
Like we were hardly friends
A one-night stand on a long weekend?

Yeah, I know
Just exactly what you would say
Play it off like everything is great
Confuse this all for fate
Like stars have never aligned so straight

But I know this was never meant to be
Tell me when you go to sleep
Do you ever dream of me?
Don’t you ever wish you weren’t alone?

I feel like I’ve
Been here so many times before
