You know the feelin' was lousy but as I'd come this far
Well, it's too easy to drink when nobody's home
But I hate to eat alone and frozen dinners don't do much for me

When you've got TV on the table and TV on TV
All you do is chew your fingers down to the bone
I hate to eat alone like the actor who's forgotten his words
You stumble through the story line

Another place, another time when you were with me
They say the city's rotten to the core
There's no communication with each other anymore
But we stopped talkin' to each other a long time before

And I hate to eat alone, hear it in my words
See it in my eyes since you went away
I wear a cheap disguise, waitin' for the mornin'
Waitin' on the light, hopin' for the sunshine before the night

I didn't tell you that I had to change, so you just took it for granted
That we'd remain the same, I know that nobody's guilty
No one's to blame so I end up on my own, god I hate to eat alone
I hate to eat alone, I hate to eat alone, I hate to eat alone

You know the feelin' was lousy but as I'd come this far
Well, it's too easy to drink when nobody's home
