[Verse 1]
You said goodbye, packed up your things
And flew over the sea
You said you’d return in the spring
Oh, you said you’d return to me
But when you returned, it wasn’t the same
You looked like an angel, glass eyes so fragile and
I wondered what could have changed
But you said, "It’s fine, I’m alright
I swear this is normal, she’s not my type
No, I just need to go home, I need to be alone for a while
I need to be alone for a while"

[Verse 2]
And, oh, what a year that must have been
I wish I could ask every detail about the things you saw
And what could have changed your mind
And I heard your sister found you
In the oak tree that we used to climb through
And your parents chopped it down
But she said, "It’s time
For me to discover that sometimes life is alright
It’s not good, it’s not bad, it’s just fine"
Said everything was alright
But you lied
[Verse 3]
And right now, I'm so angry at you
Oh, how could you do this to me?
You said you were fine, everything was alright
And I had to believe
Yes, I had to concede
But you were the last to arrive
And the first one to leave
But it's fine, I'm alright, I swear this is normal
How every damn night these days
I need to go home, I need to be alone for a while
I need to be alone for a while
