Now That We're Alone Lyrics

Now That We're Alone - The People's Thieves

...

How dark is it in your mind?

I won't stop until I can find the dead in all of you

And I know you're far from home

How dark is it in your mind?

I can't feel anything inside

Believe me when I say I'm alive and you're my home

I see the trouble that I caused

I feed the thoughts you never saw

But you just won't let me go

Won't let me go

Explain away the panic but veins were made for addicts

So promises of change are put in boxes in the attic

Won't let you know

Won't let you know

Don't get close, they got eyes of stone

You've been fallin' to pieces, they give them new life, new meanin'

Oh, they tend to hold, when you push they pull

But the fallin' is easy when you're numb

How dark is it in your mind?

I won't stop until I can find the dead in all of you

And I know you're far from home

How dark is it in your mind?

I can't feel anything inside

Believe me when I say I'm alive and you're my home

When did the lines all blur to gray

And you may never see them?

How can I sleep when you're awake?

What's the point in dreamin'?

I close my eyes and feel the weight

Fallin' from the ceilin'

On the floor screamin' no, oh

No tellin' what I might do

Something's in my head

That I'm not sure that I can fight through

And it haunts me, comin' back to say that it wants me now

I've always been afraid

Of the shadow in my closet

That somebody said I made up

It's inside now, tryna take over my mind now

But down this road, I don't see a ghost

It's more like a feelin' that almost keeps me from breathin'

I cannot hide from those silent eyes

They're pullin' me back in, controllin' every facet, they're askin'

How dark is it in your mind? (In you mind)

I won't stop until I can find the dead in all of you ('til I can find)

And I know you're far from home (you're far from home)

How dark is it in your mind? (Is it in your mind?)

I can't feel anything inside (anything inside)

Believe me when I say I'm alive and you're my home

When did the lines all blur to gray

And you may never see them?

How can I sleep when you're awake?

What's the point in dreamin'?

I close my eyes and feel the weight

Falling from the ceilin'

On the floor screamin' no, whoa-oh

I-I-I-I love it, stole them, take the parts and mold 'em

Makin' sure the mood will go unnoticed

So you gotta hide it, it's a suicidal mindset

Growin' 'til the roots are deep inside it

You vent so I write it

Tell me when you sit alone

Tell me when you're numb at home

Tell me all your hopes are gone

Steppin' on throats like a nihilist

Devil works loud so I'm workin' in the silence

You're prayin' that you'll change me (I know that, I know that)

And it hurts to think you made me (I go back, I go back)

And it's easiest to blame me (I shouldn't, I shouldn't)

When you track the steps you'll find the power that you gave me

Now that we're alone, friend

And all the good is broken

I'll pull down the shades and close all the doors

'Til I'm the only one controllin'

I'll close all the doors

'Til I'm the only one controllin'

I'll close all the doors
