All Alone

Self absorption never ending
still the truth, it keeps on bending
I feel like I'm pretending
to be something that I'm not
I gotta smooth it like Al Green
get funky like J.B.
then stand up on my own two feet
and learn how to be me
I'm contradicting myself
I'm stealing from the past
I'm trying to slow it down
because it feels like it's too fast
and I'm awaking with the fear
that this all might disappear
but it scares me just the same
to think that this could all remain

Understanding why
we do what we do
why we put ourselves
what we put ourselves through
when there's no one to comfort
in your comfort zone
and you feel
like you're all alone

Like you're all alone
all alone
all alone
