Alone Again (Live at KSSU) Lyrics

She was sixteen with short dark hair

Never felt like anyone was there

Forgotten by her family, she hangs out after school

Smokes under the bleachers but doesn't think it's cool

She's got a best friend who's never around

Never picks up her calls

'Cuz she's always out

So she picks up her head and tries to move on

Her Dad says she's too pretty to get drunk

But she does it anyway

It's the price she has to pay

She's alone again

Alone again

Alone again

Alone again

Her brother just got back from jail

He helps make cookies for the bake sale

Her Mom feels like she is on her own

Wants to leave her boyfriend and throw away her phone

The girl sits alone and wonders why she's here

Is there a plan for her, that someone will hear

Is there a path for her, a light at the end of the tunnel

Then the night turns into day

No one asks if she's okay

She's alone again

Alone again

Alone again

Alone again

She slips on her jacket

Laces up her shoes

Gives you a ring, it doesn't go through

When nobody answers, she opens the door

At least this way she can be sure.
