So Alone from Wilmington Optimist by Danny and the Darlings

Nobody knows that I’m talking to myself
They’ll just think that you’re still here with me
If they hear me through the walls they’ll think I’m somebody else
I’ll do the voices and I’ll make believe

I’m just like Johnny Thunders: all by myself
I play my guitar like a goddamned fireworks display
My neighborhood bops night and day
And then sometimes the Phillies play
Maybe I’m not so alone after all

Nobody knows why I feel the way I do
All fucked up and lonely all the time
You’re so sweet to me and it only makes me blue
Maybe there’s something wrong with my mind

They say you don’t know what you got
Until it’s gone, But that’s not true
I miss you when you’re sitting next to me
I love you so desperately
And I know that you love me
Maybe I’m not so alone after all
