time alone
music + lyrics by jillian walker
All you need is some time alone
Sit at home, don’t look at your phone
If you close your eyes they’ll be in there,
Dancing to the beat of your favorite song
That you can’t listen to any longer
You still carry the weight of that love
It’s been dead for a long time
Like a habit you can’t get rid of
A punishment that doesn’t fit the crime
And you try to look ahead
And you try to go to bed
But they’re dancing in your head
Yeah, they’re dancing in your head
You still carry the weight
You still carry the weight
Have another beer
It is clear you won’t get enough sleep tonight
Tomorrow’s gonna hurt
Nothing’s worse than the war zone in your mind
Maybe it’s time to choose a side
You can’t win, when you walk the line
Bombs are going off, and you run away
And you hold on tighter and tighter and tighter
At the same time
Try to look ahead
Try to go to bed
But they’re dancing in your head
They’re still dancing in your head
You still carry the weight of that love
It’s been dead for a long time
It’s not even like you want it back
Or it’s love you lack
You don’t choose to pack it around
You still carry the weight of that love
It’s gettin’ kinda heavy
