"Lonely Together" lyrics

"Lonely Together"
(feat. Rita Ora)

It's you and your world and I'm caught in the middle
I caught the edge of a knife and it hurts just a little
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know that I can't be your friend
It's my head or my heart and I'm caught in the middle

My hands are tied, but not tight enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh lord, here we go

I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight

Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together

Eyes wide shut and it feels like the first time (ooh)
Before the rush to my blood was too much and we flat-lined (ooh)
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know just how this ends
Now I'm all messed-up and it feels like the first time

I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight

Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together

My hands are tied, but not tight enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh lord, here we go

I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight

Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
A little less lonely now
A little less lonely now
A little less lonely now

The last song released by Avicii during his lifetime.
The track was released on the 11th of August 2017 as the second single from the EP "Avīci (01)".
The song is also featured on Rita Ora's second studio album "Phoenix" (2018).
The music video for this track won "Best Dance Video" at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards.
Levan Tsikurishvili, who directed this song's music video, said, "It has been an amazing fun process in many ways – I loved the idea of playing around with the 'frozen' world. What I would do if I could freeze the world – imagine one day if you really could do that, what would you do?"
Rita Ora wrote on Twitter after Avicii's death, "I have no words. I remember how amazing it was to make 'Lonely Together' and it felt like just yesterday we were talking. Condolences to Avicii's family, friends, and the fans who supported him. May he rest in peace. Gone too soon. I'm devastated. Heartbroken."
