Lonely Lyrics

[Intro: Jacob Sartorius]
If it kills to be lonely, then bury me slowly
When you close both my eyelids, I know you're not cryin'

[Verse 1: Jacob Sartorius, Audrey Mika]
It's like, settle down, settle down, should've found a middle ground
Could've took another route, would've, but I couldn't
And I didn't wanna let you down
But I did
And now I'm on my bathroom floor, getting wasted


[Pre-Chorus: Jacob Sartorius]
Too low, I'm broke
Don't wanna die alone (Yeah)
No home, no hope
I don't wanna fight
Yeah

[Chorus: Jacob Sartorius, Audrey Mika]
If it kills to be lonely, then bury me slowly
When you close both my eyelids, I know you're not cryin'
Your heart's filled with nothin' from what I can see
If it kills to be lonely, then I guess bein' lonely killed me


[Post-Chorus: Audrey Mika]
(Lonely, bein')
Guess bein' lonely killed me
[Verse 2: Jacob Sartorius, Jacob Sartorius & Audrey Mika]
You were my best friend and now you're turnin' to my enemy
I miss who you were before my texts started turning green
Yeah, got a good face, but you're bringin' me bad news
Bringin' me bad news, bringin' me bad news
You say that life sucks, but I don't think it has to
Don't think it has to, don't think it has to


[Pre-Chorus: Jacob Sartorius & Audrey Mika, Audrey Mika, Jacob Sartorius]
Oh, too low, I'm broke
Don't wanna die alone (Ohh)
No home, no hope
I don't wanna fight
Yeah

[Chorus: Jacob Sartorius, Audrey Mika, Jacob Sartorius & Audrey Mika]
If it kills to be lonely (If it kills to be)
Then bury me slowly (Bury me slowly)
When you close both my eyelids (My eyes)
I know you're not cryin'
If it kills to be lonely (If it kills to be)
Then bury me slowly (Bury me slowly)
When you close both my eyelids
I know you're not cryin'

[Outro: Audrey Mika]
Your heart's filled with nothin' from what I can see
If it kills to be lonely, then I guess bein' lonely killed me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
