Dalton Domino Happy Alone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The times that I should hate you
Are when I miss you the most
In the still of the darkness
Reaching for someone else's ghost
When the night starts to haunt you
In that shell you called our home
Are you happy alone?

[Verse 2]
I heard you found love that came natural
And now you sit up on your throne
With a goddamn high-and-mighty smile
Thrown towards those you used to know
But tell me, what happens when your empire
Sinks just like a stone?
Will you be happy alone?
Will you be happy alone?

[Verse 3]
I sang you a dirge against the moonlight
But you were already gone
And that broken chord that I played
It wasn't enough to lead you home
So I tore my faith from your axis
And watched you spin out of control
I got by on my own (Got my on my own)

[Verse 4]
The lessons learned when you're forced to grow
They can't be bought or sold
Like a lonesome wind, it cuts cold
And your feeling in your bones
But I found peace in the shadows
And claimed your darkness as my own
You taught me how to be alone
You taught me how to be alone
