Together We're Both Alone

I am raising a flag

I am just too tired now to fight

It’s white and it’s waving

Can’t we save this for another night

I used to be afraid, but now I crave the quiet

Together we are both alone, but I don’t mind

I’ll dream of something to try and make us all right

Baby, put your arms down

They’re machines that can’t be fixed no more

Causing the alarm sounds

I’ll be right here waiting at your door

We’ll sit up on the bed for a while

Together we are both alone, but we don’t mind

We’ll dream of something to try and make us all right

But the dawn is trouble

When I close my eyes, you never go away

I’ve tried everything, still you won’t change

Is it better if you go…

But the ending doesn’t matter

One hundred days, Running faster through this

Hope to save your heart before it drops

And you didn’t even say I didn’t try

Together we are both alone, but I don’t mind

I dreamt of everything, I tried to make us all right

It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right

It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right

It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right

It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right
