lyrics

You Thought You Knew Lonely

you’re emaciated
with wiggle room now nil
backed into a sweat house
where nature’s come to kill

the fire means to find you
the virus knows your name
you grab for that handhold
but nothing stays the same

you thought you knew lonely
seems you had no clue
they fade in the distance
now there’s only you

your house almost airless
how long before you melt
next will come the locust plague
you play the hand you’re dealt

spinning tragic music
sweet tiny bursts of hope
could this be the end time
scant reservoirs to cope

you thought you knew lonely
seems you had no clue
they fade in the distance
now there’s only you

though the pressure ratchets up
this fever’s bound to break
holding tight no panic
just testing what it takes

you thought you knew lonely
seems you had no clue
they fade in the distance
now there’s only you
