You re Not Alone Again

You’re Not Alone Again
Ooh... yeah...
Lord, have mercy on my soul...
Ooh-ooh... Listen to me, baby...
Yeah... Here we go.

Neon outside, but it’s dark and smoky in here...
Every damn night in this high-end joint...
I’m playing for you... for the two of you, the perfect pair.
You laugh at his jokes, sipping your wine,
And I’m looking right at you... and it’s a bitter pill to swallow.
.. Ooh... yeah...
But there’s a fire, baby, burning deep inside!
This hidden love is burning me to the ground!
Ooh-ooh... Yeah, it’s burning!

The lights are dimming down low...
And my eyes are locked on you...
Can you hear this voice? Can you feel this pain?
Ooh, it’s my soul screaming out!

I’m waiting for you! Every single night!
Praying to God you’d walk in alone...
Wanna blow my voice out, wanna scream from this stage!
That I love you!
But...

You’re not alone again.
He’s got his arm around your waist...
And once again... SNAP!
Just snapped another string!
Yeah! Broke another string, baby!
Ooh-ooh-ooh!

Night after night. Same old circle, back to the start.
Ice melting in the glass, but my blood’s on fire.
.. Ooh... yeah...
Singing to you through this thick, sweet smoke.
About my love... Oh Lord, about my love!
You don't even look at my hands...
And they’re shaking on the fretboard now!
Hoo-hoo! Calloused fingers, bleeding heart!

He’s buying you drinks...
And I’m singing you my songs...
But money can’t buy what’s boiling inside!
Ooh, listen to the bass, listen to this heartbeat!
He’s checking his watch, man, he’s bored to death!
And I’m looking right at you... losing my mind!

Oooooh! Cry for me, guitar, cry!
Ooh-ooh-ooh! Tell her what I can’t say!
Ooh, Lord, get me out of here!
Yeah!

Gripping the neck so hard the wood’s gonna splinter!
You’re giving him that fake-ass smile...
And I wanna smash these damn neon lights!
Wanna run out into the street and howl at the moon!
But I’m stuck on this stool...
Playing for you... for the two of you...
Ooh... yeah...

Just snapped another string...
Ooh... yeah...
Gotta change this string...
But I can’t change your mind...
Ooh... yeah...
You’re settling the tab...
And I’m left with the burn...
Ooh, Lord...
Just snapped another string...
