‘Alone’ is the second track on Cavetown’s upcoming EP ‘little vice’ released on the 23rd of February, 2024.
‘Alone’ expands Cavetown’s usual indie-pop sound into directions that are more edgy and electronic, symbolizing the discomfort of trying to be more vulnerable after a lifetime of not knowing...
[Chorus]
Isn't it fun to be alone?
Isn't it what you want?
Isn't it something you've been lookin' for?
Isn't it?
Isn't it?
[Verse 1]
Honey thinks I should take it slow
Isn't that all I know? (Yeah)
Slow to a stop and I think I might stick to the road
Like, call a tow
Take me home
[Verse 2]
I thought I was better alone
Didn't see people a lot
Now I'm the walls of a room
Now I'm the hands of a clock
I feel like the love that I get
Is one and the same with the sauce
I feel like I bought all my friends
Am I your bud or your boss?
[Chorus]
Fun to be alone
(I thought I was better alone, didn't see people a lot)
(Now I'm the walls of a room, now I'm the hands of a clock)
This is just what I want
(I feel like the love that I get is one and the same with the sauce)
This is exactly what I'm lookin' for
(I feel like I bought all my friends, am I your bud or your boss?)
Isn't it?
[Verse 3]
Don't wanna get lost in the haze
Don't wanna appear in the news
Been thinking of running away
From things that I don't wanna lose
I'm wanting to beg 'em to stay
I'm wanting to be who they choose
But still I keep pushing away
From people I don't wanna lose
I'm keeping it cool by the way
I'm storing my head in the closet
'Cause you matter more than my brain
Wardrobe, coldest place in my home
I'm not gonna let it decay
I'm not tryna lose my deposit
I'm not gonna beg you to stay
Yeah, yeah, I'm letting it go
[Bridge]
(Isn't it?)
Oh
[Chorus]
Isn't it fun to be alone?
Isn't it what you want?
Isn't it something you've been looking for?
Isn't it fun?
Mm
Mm
