Life's okay, I'm looking backwards through the wrong side of the screen
It's a lifetime show for freaks
And watch your pace, I'm laughing loudest when I want to walk away
It's performative and sheen
Let's meet for drinks, let's try to be social
But when I leave I know I've met no one

I wish someone had told me it's ok to be lonely

Let's get involved without an ounce of love
It's scarier to be alone than here with me
And stay for years
It's not a good spot but I've found somewhere to be
A complacent kind of peace
And we won't have to think while we're touching
But when we kiss you know it means nothing

I wish someone had told me it's ok to be lonely

You're not estranged they're just boring
There's not a person worth knowing
It's fine, we're overextended
Don't smile, you're only pretending

I wish someone had told me it's ok to be lonely
