"How To Be Lonely" lyrics

"How To Be Lonely"

He told me that he love me more than most
That he could be the one to take me home
(But am I good enough to)
Be the everything that he could want?
He told me that he love me more than most

Been lookin' for a non-material love
Soon as I find it I'll be fuckin' it up (Break it up)
Like I ain't made a mess, you're often enough
Not enough, not enough, not enough, not enough, no no no

Will no one ever show me how to be lonely?
End up on my own almost every night
Yeah I must be the only feeling like
Losing you showed me how to be lonely
Ain't nobody can hold me like the way you hold me
End up on my own almost every night
I must be the only feeling like
Losing you showed me how to be lonely

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Feeling like losing you showed me how to be lonely

(But am I good enough to)
Tell you that I love you more than most?
That you could be the one to take me home?
(But am I good enough to)
To give you everything that you can hold?
In truth, I'm being honest, I don't know

Been lookin' for a non-material love
Soon as I find it I'll be fuckin' it up (Break it up)
Like I ain't made a mess, you're often enough
Not enough, not enough, not enough, not enough, no no no

Will no one ever show me how to be lonely?
End up on my own almost every night
I must be the only feeling like
Losing you showed me how to be lonely

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Feeling like losing you showed me how to be lonely

(But am I good enough to)
Hmm, yeah, yeah

Will no one ever show me how to be lonely?
End up on my own almost every night
I must be the only feeling like
Losing you showed me how to be lonely
Ain't nobody can hold me, like the way you hold me
End up on my own almost every night
I must be the only feeling like
Losing you showed me how to be lonely

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Feeling like losing you showed me how to be lonely
Oh oh oh oh oh (be lonely), oh oh oh oh oh (be lonely), oh oh oh
Feeling like losing you showed me how to be lonely
