Only Miss You (When I Feel Alone)

(album: Generation Of Me - 2022)

I'm caught in the same old web again
Already in bed when you drop me a pin
But you got me trained to play the part
With no hesitation or change of heart

I'm finding your things all around my house
I see all your friends when I try to go out
And you already post everything you do
So what do I say when I'm looking right at you?

Now I'm five shots in at a Prince Street bar
With a stuffed up nose and a credit card
It's a switch-blade-stare and we're sharing a car
Cause you wanted the company

And I'm almost sick and we're back on the block
It's a click and buzz and the door unlocks
Then it's up the stairs and our clothes come off
Yeah we're lost in a fantasy

Lay your head down on my shoulder
Leave me dreaming when it's over
You won't call me when you're sober
Is this all you want?

When we're on the right track
The memory comes right back
It's hard to keep myself
From picking up the phone
I only miss you when I feel alone
I only miss you when I feel alone
I only miss you when I feel alone

I've grown so tired of the usual tricks
All the little white lies and the politics
And the way we won't say what we've both been thinking
Stop me if you've heard this one before

I only miss you when I feel alone
You never listen when I say it's over
I got an issue with my self-control
You always knew I was the weaker one
I know I shouldn't want to take you home
But I can't take this any longer
You win again

When we're on the ride back
Separate and silent
Well I don't feel like lying to ya
And you don't need to know
I only miss you when I feel alone
I only miss you when I feel alone
I only miss you when I feel alone
