Mostly Alone lyrics
In the hands of someone else you’d thrive
Me, I’m destined to boredom
Well at this way we’ll stay alive
If demons die when you ignore them
With you and me in a room we take off, and too soon
There’s every ghost we can conjure
I shouldn’t resurrect this, I should forget
1st CHORUS:
Well, anyway, I opened this year
With thoughts of you coming here
And arriving with some kind of cure
Like we could stare at the sun
As it dives off the Oregon coast
Leaving us mostly alone
Alone, mostly alone
There was that night in Monterey
That we got closest to sober
So by the end of that next day
We had to admit it was over
But no one would so we did, what we could to drag on
As if there was something to salvage
The only thought that lingers, is that there was
2nd CHORUS:
Well, anyway, I opened this day
Writing down what I ought to say
But the steam on the mirror fades
Leaving only my head
Staring off like some shipwrecked ghost
Who’d rather be mostly alone
Alone, mostly alone
Our longings never coincided
So we drowned them with our pasts
But you were the surface for me
And with that and some time and I just might last
I count you among those who have, so anyway
