Lyrics Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Company

If you ask me I will say I'm fine

All pink like birthday girls and valentines

And then the stillness of the night reminds

That I don't like to be alone

My thoughts are race cars

running 'round my head

They burst into flames

and they crash into my bed

Until I fall into a dream instead

Where all my lovers turn to stone

And all I want is company

Someone to understand this misery

Send a reflection of myself to me

'Cause everybody needs some company

These times I'm living in

just make no sense

Sometimes my face gets

pushed against the fence

I want to scream out in my self-defense

But I don't want to be alone

And all I want is company

Someone to understand this misery

Send a reflection of myself to me

'Cause everybody needs some company

What is truth and what is fear

Will I find it under here

I know they're selling me a lie

But I'm first in line to buy

First in line to try

I find some sanity on the

written page

Where life is worth more

than a living wage

They say the battle's over

now it's time to change

And I won't ever be alone

And all I want is company

Someone to understand this misery

Send a reflection of myself to me

'Cause everybody needs some company

I need some company

Company
