I never thought I’d die alone I laughed the loudest who’d have known
Traced the cord back to the wall no wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up the choice was mine I didn’t think enough
I’m to depressed to go on you’ll be sorry when I’m gone (hold out)

Never conquered rarely came 16 just held such better days
Days when I could still feel alive we couldn’t wait to get out-
Side the world was wide to late to try the tour was over we’d survived
I couldn’t wait till I got home to pass the time in my room alone (hold out)

I never thought I’d die alone in six months I’ll be unknown
Give all of my things to all of my friends you’ll never set foot in my room again
You’ll close it off board it up remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall please tell mom this is not her fault (hold out)
