How to Be Alone

 There’s a stranger stalking my room,
Peering in through the mirror
I catch’m him doing the same in my window pane and my cereal spoon
Like her, I wish he'd disappear

Always cursing and bickering, she and I just couldn't be helped
What an odd way to coexist
Finally I’m blessed with time all to myself
I’m just not sure who that is

I forget how to be alone
I forget how to be alone
And it hurts like hell to change

I begged her to come back to me when I came to see her
Was never good at playing nonchalant 
She said, “Honestly, is it really me?
or just the idea that you truly want?”

Stabbed my wrist with a pen, trying to re-write my regret
Now there’s ink trapped beneath my skin
Could’ve used something sharp if I were smart
Or better yet, nothin’

I forget how to be alone
I forget how to be alone
And it hurts like hell to change
But it’s killing me trying to stay the same
I gotta change
I gotta change

I forget how to be alone
I forget how to be alone
