only alone

I once begged for action to make it all happen

But there were no more birthdays in the captions

I molded your face as a paranoid distraction

My brain detached in a 50/50 fraction

I studied the Bible with no start of term

And the silence helped me to learn

The embarrassed evidence doesn’t matter b/c nobody knows

Their opinions of you disappeared because you froze

Don’t worry, baby, you’re only alone

I needed a break so I threw out my phone

Everyone has a way that the story was told

For me, it was different, I just woke up old

Don’t worry, baby, you’re only alone

The hospital room investigated the unknown

The police that sent me were well intentioned

I buckled at the authority that questioned

I’m inspired by the shelter you made in the rain

So, remember, stay calm and pave the way
