I wanted to be free
But there was nothing left of me
I saw the emptiness in your eyes
Though I had to leave, something inside told me

It hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death

I found that loneliness makes me ill
Till I found I could reach out to some girl
Like the girl on TV
Like a magazine that smiles at me

But it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death

Way out in the deep blue sea
The fish swim like a family
The big fish eat the little fish
Till the bigger fish eats the bigger fish
And it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death

I only wanted to be free
But the world was like a prison to me
When you're alone in the darkness you can’t see
Maybe you can get the gist of me

Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death

I was wondering what the after life was like
Somehow you'll get your reward
Pillow for your head, whatever you want
Free refills of your great love soda

Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death

Somewhere in the future I might not be there
I plan to live forever if I dare
I need to be happy, I need your affection
I need the kisses I‘ve been missing

Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
