Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Cracks in the pavement underneath my shoe I care less and less about and less about you No one else around to look at me So I can look at my shadow as much as I please All the kicks that I can't compare to Making friends like they're all supposed to You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel Space around me where my soul can breathe I've got body that my mind can leave Nothing else matters, I don't care what I miss Company's okay Solitude is bliss There's a party in my head and no one is invited And you will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel Movement doesn't flow Quite like it does when I'm alone I'll be the one who's free You and all your friends can watch me, today Don't ask me how you're supposed to feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel
