Alone - Valerio Scanu

In a word you said it’s over

with a look you closed the door

there’s no need to keep pretending

anymore

I don’t need to say I’m sorry

I don’t have to compromise

I can tell the truth instead of

more white lies

(but) I reach for you at night

I trace your every curve

there’s a space on my skin

where your lips should have been

as I lie here alone

I’m staring at the fire

from my wooden throne

as my world turns to ash

now I can’t make it back

since you left me alone

let me tell you I was wrong

and I’ve paid for what I’ve learned

you got everything you wanted

I got burned

all the times I didn’t listen

all the nights that I wasn’t there

all that’s left is my attrition

and thin air

I reach for you at night

I trace your every curve

there’s a space on my skin

where your lips should have been

as I lie here alone

I’m staring at the fire

from my wooden throne

as my world turns to ash

now I can’t make it back

since you left me alone

I thought that we were not that serious

pleasure just to pass the time

now the loving words you said

are on repeat inside my head

you think I’m made of stone

but I’m broken and alone

I reach for you at night

I trace your every curve

there’s a space on my skin

where your lips should have been

as I lie here alone

I’m staring at the fire

from my wooden throne

as my world turns to ash

now I can’t make it back

since you left me alone
