Lyrics
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
VERSE
AT NIGHT I FOLLOW THE CRACKS IN THE CEILING
AS THEY SNAKE THEIR WAY DOWN THE WALL
NO I'M NOT CRAZY IT BEATS COUNTING SHEEP
AND LATELY I CAN'T SLEEP AT ALL
KILLING TIME TAKES FOREVER WHEN YOU'RE DYING TO FORGET
MY MEMORY TOOK A TURN FOR THE WORSE SO I THINK I'LL JUST LAY HERE IN BED
CHORUS
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
GETTING OVER I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
FIGHTING OFF THE HURT AND RIDING OUT THE STORM
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
VERSE
I'VE STOOD AND STARED OUT THE WINDOW FOR SO LONG
MY REFLECTION IS ETCHED IN THE GLASS
WHEN IT RAINS OUTSIDE IT LOOKS LIKE I'M CRYING
BUT I FEEL A LOT WORSE THAN THAT
SOLITAIRE ISN'T WORKING AND I'VE READ EVERY BOOK ON THE SHELF
MY SHADOW GOT TIRED OF HEARING MY VOICE IT LEFT ME TO TALK TO MYSELF
CHORUS
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
GETTING OVER I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
FIGHTING OFF THE HURT AND RIDING OUT THE STORM
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
FIGHTING OFF THE HURT AND RIDING OUT THE STORM
ISN'T THAT WHAT LONELY'S FOR
