[Verse One] Why we can't get it right at home Girl I can't handle you. You can't handle me We can't handle our world See me on Tuesday, next day I'm out of state Scene in my city be like every other place—pretty fake Where else could we go? Too many roads Too many wounds I don't wanna be wound to you, you know Not to long ago We was in the pool I was into you We skinny dipped, could of got arrested But we was invested in some higher— truth You? Look at you-you Forget the way we swayed the water oh-oh Sound penetrate the water like a flame turn blue You finger-trace my shoulder blades With hands that memorize my face Smooth I must admit, I can't forget the way an orgasm bloom Like the orbit of a moon that eclipses in a private room Memory This love ain't bullet proof Revelry You and me we ain't bullet proof Remember theeee Ammunition we keep In our mouth like a loose tooth Talk is what we do: shoot-shoot [Chorus] I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) Don't you know about? Don't you know about Donnie Darko? [Verse Two] Emotional weight Makes the surface of this relationship easy to break Holy earthquake. Ain't no middle ground Just a bunch of romance predicated on the concept of fate I don't want to use a song like a choke chain I just write what comin' out from my veins Ain't no easy way to say, the picture we painted Has started to fade My bad, dam, left the cap off the toothpaste Your disapproving glance makes my body conflate Weight “Hold up, hey Why we out of touch? How this fight erupt?” I said what? Now your stung and your bringin up old sh** All your feelings shows up like “oh sh**.” Could you be more drastic? Like you wish you never knew me what is that sh**?” Like you can't see most of what we have is fantastic: Love friendship intimacy how you gonna look past this?” Right? But look at all this baggage We can't even mask it So dam tragic Sigh d**h-d**h dancing Bunch of hammers in our hands Actin like we ain't already built these caskets Why? [Chorus] I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) Don't you know about? Don't you know about Donnie Darko? [Verse Three] What a twinkle in my eye on a Saturday night My boy said he bout to have a baby And I told him its goin be alright What a miracle is life But some days I'm not afraid to toss it a side When you get this age and you witness suicides When you get to this age you feel young and old at the same time In the living room with a change maker and his incredible wife Trying to figure out the secret to their success But I see the struggle in their eyes We all holdin' on ‘til we die We all holdin' on ‘til we die People grow alone People grow. People don't People grow apart People fade away People get afraid People braid their hopes People gotta cope Relationships need soil and water and sun you know? We got the water and it flow But we both fightin' for the sun, branchin' out. Oh, no Branch this message in your memory Cuz I feel this heavily I'm lonely in my mental. See I prefer to be alone when it just me As opposed to feeling all alone next to someone struggling to love me Cuz I struggle to love me We do the same thing! [Chorus] I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) I live alone, I live alone (ha, ha, ha) Don't you know about? Don't you know about Donnie Darko? [Outro] Don't you know about Donnie, Donnie, Donnie, Donnie, Donnie, Donnie, Darko? I think we k**ed us and we died-died Woke up in my bed like where is my pride-pride? I think we k**ed us and we died-died Can't even cry cuz we done this too many time-times I think I k**ed us and we died-died Woke up in my bed like who by my side-side? I think we k**ed us and we died-died Woke up in our bed like new water, new soil, new life New...life
