Death - Jad Fair, Daniel Johnston

I wanted to be free

But there was nothing left of me

I saw the emptiness in your eyes

Though I had to leave, something inside told me

It hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death

I found that loneliness makes me ill

Till I found I could reach out to some girl

Like the girl on TV

Like a magazine that smiles at me

But it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death

Way out in the deep blue sea

The fish swim like a family

The big fish eat the little fish

Till the bigger fish eats the bigger fish

And it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death

I only wanted to be free

But the world was like a prison to me

When you’re alone in the darkness you can’t see

Maybe you can get the gist of me

Cause it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death

I was wondering what the after life was like

Somehow you’ll get your reward

Pillow for your head, whatever you want

Free refills of your great love soda

Cause it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death

Somewhere in the future I might not be there

I plan to live forever if I dare

I need to be happy, I need your affection

I need the kisses I’ve been missing

Cause it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

You might as well

Just worry yourself to death

Death
