Now That I’m Alone

[Verse 1]
I’ve been driving fast in my car away from home
And I’m surviving, but I’ll admit, I miss my dog
It’s somewhat violent, the kind of pull it has on me
But I’ll keep trying until it gets the best of me

[Verse 2]
I’m always hiding from knowing eyes that see right through
This old disguise, I’ve been growing out of it like it was you Sometimes I find it’s the hardest thing to hear the truth
But I don’t mind it, not when I’m hearing it from you

[Chorus]
Where do I go now that I’m alone, dear?
Where will I find my peace?
Just far enough so not to hear you calling
Stop waiting up for me

[Verse 3]
I’m always crying 'bout petty wounds that just won’t heal
But staying silent while kids are dying, world’s on fire
It’s every headline, feel so helpless all the time
Can’t do it anymore, not if I’m on my own

[Chorus]
Where do I go now that I’m alone, dear?
Where will I find my peace?
Just far enough so not to hear you calling
Stop waiting up for me

[Bridge]
Maybe I’ll run away out to the mountains
Lying out in the open every night star gazing
Maybe I’ll leave without a trace in the morning
No more wishing, no more hoping, the great wide open

[Chorus]
Where do I go now that I’m alone, dear?
Where will I find my peace?
Just far enough so not to hear you calling
Stop waiting up for me

[Outro]
Where do I go now that I’m alone, dear?
Where will I find my peace? I'm waitin'
Just far enough so not to hear you calling
Stop waiting up for me
