I can drink alone.

I can drink alone.

I can enjoy the undertones of life alone.

I might moan because of wishes...

or the Way I want to see things.

But I can sit alone.

I can drink alone

I can write alone and I can

Decipher your confusion alone

I can lend you advice alone

 

& I can let you know that I am

Alone.

 

I'm not afraid to be lonesome.

But I'm afraid to discover loneliness alone.

 

I'm not afraid to walk alone

I'm built to be alone.

 

But you're scared of my

tendency to be alone.

 

I can dance alone.

& I can breathe alone.

 

I can drink with you.

But I drink alone.
