The Word Alive – The Fortune Teller lyrics
[Verse 1]
They never said that it'd be easy
To find another soul that wasn't empty.
Well, I know, I know now how hard it can be,
To give and to give, not receive.
Never guessing I'd have all the answers,
I lost my mind chasing after her.
This is not what the fortune teller said,
This can't be how it's supposed to be.
[Chorus]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
[Verse 2]
Why does it always have to end this way?
History repeats and I just stay the same.
The closer and closer I get,
The more and more I choose to forget.
I'm buried deep in this dream we conceived,
Problematic, romantics, I'm lost you see.
It's a difference of opinion, we think we know.
The best way not to feel is to stay alone.
[Chorus]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
[Bridge]
Separating what I feel from what I know.
The heart feels what it feels, and then it slows.
Taking prisoners but the head doesn't know.
Self-destruction of our sanity.
You'll get what you deserve,
But never what you need.
What do we need?
[Outro]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? But I know I'm better this way!
I know I'm better this way.
I'm better this way.
They never said that it'd be easy
To find another soul that wasn't empty.
Well, I know, I know now how hard it can be,
To give and to give, not receive.
Never guessing I'd have all the answers,
I lost my mind chasing after her.
This is not what the fortune teller said,
This can't be how it's supposed to be.
[Chorus]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
[Verse 2]
Why does it always have to end this way?
History repeats and I just stay the same.
The closer and closer I get,
The more and more I choose to forget.
I'm buried deep in this dream we conceived,
Problematic, romantics, I'm lost you see.
It's a difference of opinion, we think we know.
The best way not to feel is to stay alone.
[Chorus]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? Am I on my own?
[Bridge]
Separating what I feel from what I know.
The heart feels what it feels, and then it slows.
Taking prisoners but the head doesn't know.
Self-destruction of our sanity.
You'll get what you deserve,
But never what you need.
What do we need?
[Outro]
Here I am now, and I'm all alone,
And I can't feel you now.
Am I on my own? But I know I'm better this way!
I know I'm better this way.
I'm better this way.
