  They called u a “no-good kid”
  Growing up, that’s what they did
  But ur good nature is 2 tru
  4 me 2 hang around wit u
  
  It’s sad when u r wit somebody
  But u feel like ur alone
  It’s sadder still, to be on ur own
  
  Alexa, I’m living in ur room
  And dying in there too
  Are we 2 close 4 comfort?
  From here, I see a slice of blue
  And other gorgeous hues
  And hear the clatter on the pavement
  
  It’s sad when u r wit somebody
  But u feel like ur alone
  It’s sadder still, 2 be on ur own
  
  Chasin’ freddie ‘round the porch
  In that summer rain that just pours
  Making love down on the boards
  The day I turned twenty four
  
  Living mostly in my head
  Thinking of the home we had
  Who can say if I am dumb or I’m depressed
  Who I am 2 say who’s blessed?
  
  It’s sad when u r wit somebody
  But u feel like ur alone
  It’s sadder still, to be on ur own
  
  Alexa, I’m staying in ur room
  Almost the whole day thru
  From here, I see a slice of blue
  Amongst the gorgeous hues
  And hear the clatter on the pavement
  
  It’s sad when u r wit somebody
  But u feel like ur alone
  It’s sadder still, to be on ur own
  
  They called u a “no-good kid”
  Billy always said that I’d split
  Cuz ur good nature is 2 tru
  4 me 2 hang around wit u
  
  It’s sad when u r wit somebody
  But u feel like ur alone
  It’s sadder still, 2 be on ur own
  
  to be on ur own
  to be on ur own
  to be on ur own
  la la la la
