[Intro]
Yeah…
Alone… alone
[Verse 1]
You left me in pieces, it’s not the first time
I tell myself I’ll be fine
But the walls start closing in at night
I’m sinking slowly into my mind
Oh God, this room won’t stand still
Head spinning off the pills of memory
I gave too much, I let you in
Now I’m paying for what we’ve been
[Chorus]
Count to ten, that’s what I do
Count to ten, it pulls me through
Counting till I lose my breath
Like I’m dancing with my emptiness
[Verse 2 – slow rap]
All I ever wanted was you, still true
Never said a word, yeah I was scared to lose
You left me broken, came back kind
Said you’d heal me, crossed that line
That wasn’t love, just a back-and-forth
A fire that burns but gives no warmth
I know the truth, I say it now
But your flame still lingers somehow
[Chorus]
Count to ten, that’s what I do
Count to ten, it pulls me through
Counting till I lose my breath
Like I’m dancing with my emptiness
[Bridge]
Maybe I was looking for a sign
Maybe I was blind on purpose
I called it love, I called it fate
But pain was all I learned from it
[Outro]
One breath in, one breath out
I don’t need you right now
Still alone, but I can stand
I’ll stop counting when I can
Yeah…
Alone…
But I’m still here
