[Verse 1]

Is it just me

Or is everybody lonely?

I ain't seen

A good day in a while

It kinda seems

Like sometimes I'm the only one

Who can't get it right

[Verse 2]

And I'm not sure

Where all of this is going

Is there more

Or a reason to keep trying?

What's it for?

Well, no one ever told me

So I couldn't tell you why

This much I know

[Chorus]

You leave this life alone

Pay your dues and pay your taxes

Always want what you can't have

Kiss the hand that keeps you fed

That's the way it goes

Parents and politicians lie

You only live until you die

You can't take back the things you said

But the sun comes up even when you're feeling down

And every day the world's still spinning 'round

[Verse 3]

Don't ask me

Just because I'm older

Seem more happy

But I still ain't seen the truth

So how am I happy

When I'm so fucking sad

And so much shit is bad

And everybody's sad?

[Chorus]

Because you leave this life alone

Pay your dues and pay your taxes

Always want what you can't have

Kiss the hand that keeps you fed

That's the way it goes

Preachers and politicians lie

You only live until you die

You can't take back the things you said

But the sun comes up even when you're feeling down

And every day the world's still spinning 'round

[Chorus]

You leave this life alone

Maybe next December

You'll feel a little better

You might even fall in love

That's the way it goes

You'll have a good dog and a best friend

I don't know how the rest ends

Or what goes on above

But the sun comes up

Even when you're feeling down

And every day the world's still spinning 'round

And every day the world's still spinning 'round

[Outro]

Is it just me

Or is everybody lonely?
