Lonesome – Kina Grannis

Does anybody know
Why I get this feeling
I wake up to it eating
At the core of me
And so, dreams are just for show
Just stories without meaning
Why can I not shake them
From my bones

Does everybody want to be alone
Tell me it’s okay so I can go, oh
If everybody wants to be alone
You would make the lonely
Feel less lonesome

It lingers in my day
It’s lurking in my backyard
The birds just keep on singing
So oblivious
But you start to feel it too
Just underneath the surface
Whispers from the left side
Of the bed

Does everybody want to be alone
Tell me it’s okay so I can go
If everybody wants to be alone
You would make the lonely
Feel less lonesome

But does everybody want to be alone
You would make the lonely
Feel less lonesome
