When I'm Alone

(album: Twelve Carat Toothache - 2022)

We made a pact
You'd take me back
Always, again

I'm bleeding out
I need you now
Can't let you win

I want it all, I want it all
I push so hard, I break it
My only home went down in smoke
It's bitter sweet, I taste it

So are you lonely?
'Cause I'm healing slowly
In a moment, your memory is fading on me

Got no expectations now that I'm forsaken
Let's see what I'm made of
Find out if I can take it, now

When I'm alone
Pretend I'm letting you go
Just tell me who to blame
For this

When waking up
Feels like a punch in the gut
Just tell me, who's to blame
For this?

All I wanted was a piece of decent on the side
When we go to bed, she be creeping on my side
I was drinking all day, I let her spend the night
When I took her home, she left something in my ride, in my ride
Damn

Then my baby found out
Now I'm living in a hotel, living in a hotel
Ain't that bad, I got room service
Living in a hotel, living in a hotel

What your life like? Need a lifeline right now
Ninety nine nights, tryna get my mind right now
Life is sour, even when I'm in the limelight now
But I try somehow

When I'm alone
Pretend I'm letting you go
Just tell me who to blame
For this

When waking up
Feels like a punch in the gut
Just tell me, who's to blame
For this?
