[Verse 1]
I got red in my hair
Like a match on the skin
Mama said stand tall
But I fold back in
I leave the house late
Just to dodge your eye
At the grocery line
I still say I’m fine
My socks don’t match
My sink is full
I count the pills
And call it cool
[Pre-Chorus]
And I laugh too loud
When nobody’s near
Just to keep that dark
From climbing in my ear
I keep my keys in my hand
Like they might save me
I keep my mouth full
So nobody sees me
[Chorus]
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
Copper head, heavy heart
Still I fall apart
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
[Verse 2]
The mirror keeps score
On the crack in my face
Every joke I make
Falls flat in place
I scroll past names
Like I’m passing signs
Nobody calls
When I vanish on time
There’s a coat on the chair
That I never wear
There’s a chair by the door
For nobody there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that ache
By the shape it takes
In the back of my throat
When the whole day breaks
I keep my lights on low
Like I owe the dark
I keep my hands in my sleeves
And my boots near the door
[Chorus]
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
Copper head, heavy heart
Still I fall apart
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
[Bridge]
If I call your name
Will it make a sound?
If I reach for you
Will you turn around?
I don’t need a speech
I don’t need a cure
Just stay one more minute
Till the hurt gets blurred
[Final Chorus]
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
Copper head, heavy heart
Still I fall apart
But I’m not gone yet
(Not gone yet)
I’m alone in this room
(Alone in this room)
