[Verse 1]
I'm makin' friends with the silence
I wanna see what the darkness knows
I'm sick of tryin' to fight it
And tapin' my eyelids closed

[Pre-Chorus]
I still recall the sound of the screamin'
I felt so at home, hyperventilatin'
It was my solace, always thought that
I was blind 'til I opened my eyes

[Chorus]
And then I was alone (Da-da-da-da-da)
Perfectly alone
And then I was alone (Da-da-da-da-da)
Perfectly, wonderfully
Awfully, beautifully alone

[Verse 2]
I used to worship the chaos
Bowed to the power of chainsaws
Didn't need nothin' from no god
I always carried my own cross
Writin' and breakin' my own laws
[Pre-Chorus]
Sleepin' in pools, swimmin' in a cold sweat
Dreamin' of rooms without any exit
So claustrophobic, didn't know it
Was a lie 'til I opened my eyes

[Chorus]
And then I was alone (Da-da-da-da-da)
Perfectly alone
And then I was alone (Da-da-da-da-da)
Perfectly, wonderfully
Awfully, beautifully alone

[Outro]
And then I was alone
Perfectly alone
And then I was alone
Perfectly, wonderfully
Awfully, finally alone
