Alone In The Dark

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.

It's a lonely picture

Of an empty glass

It's a still life study

Of a drunken ass

And he howls at the moon

Hoping the sun don't come up too fast

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone on my knees at last

Alone in the dark

It's extreme self pity

And frozen fear

'Cause I want you with me

And you're not here

So I rub my nose in it babe

'Til the roses smell just like death

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm al alone and drawing whisky breath

Alone in the dark

My head is spinning baby what went wrong

I swear to God I tried

Just turned around one day and you were gone

Now these tears I have to cry

Alone in the dark baby, I'm all alone,

I'm all alone, I'm all alone

Since the night you left

I just couldn't stand myself anyway

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone on my knees at last

Alone in the dark

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone in the dark now baby

I'm all alone on my knees at last

Alone in the dark
