Alive Alone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No way of knowing if she's ever coming back
No way of knowing if I care or not
No way of knowing if she's right or if she's wrong
No way of knowing if I'll carry on
And I'm alive
And I'm alone
And I've never wanted to be either of those
(X2)
And she shines
And she shines for me
She shines for me....
No way of knowing if she's ever coming back
No way of knowing if I care or not
No way of knowing if she's right or if she's wrong
No way of knowing if I'll carry on
And she shines
And she shines for me
She shines for me....
And I'm alive
And I'm alone
And I've never wanted to be either of those
(X2)
I'm alive
I'm alone
And I never wanted to be either of those
(X2)
And she shines
And she shines for me
She shines for me....
