I watch as you laugh across the room, exchanging smiles
I sit alone as I see you, have a good time and
I know I'm not good with this stuff, and awkward silence
I wish I was like everyone, didn't seem quiet
I came here not knowing I'd be left alone and hoping
I could go home
I'm not good at this
I know I need to learn to be left alone
Pretending is stupid
I know I need to learn to be left alone
I brace myself for loneliness, don't check my phone
Focus on facial expressions, don't seem alone
Now the awkward introductions, and the small talk
Can't add to most conversations, I stand and watch
I came here not knowing I'd be left alone and hoping
I could go home
I'm not good at this
I know I need to learn to be left alone
Pretending is stupid
I know I need to learn to be left alone
I want a glimpse, to catch your eye
Give me some attention, just once tonight
Let people see we're serious
We'll get married, I'm sorry cause I...
I'm not good at this
I know I need to learn to be left alone (just be alone)
Pretending is stupid
I know I need to learn to be left alone
I need to learn to be left alone
