Lonesome Is A State of Mind

[Verse 1]
Is it all the same?
That I’m not giving up
Tale as old as time
You’re not quick enough
I’ve seen this movie before
I think I’ve heard this song
Your future’s right out the door
Couldn’t get it wrong
And now I drive a truck
And it drives pretty well
My dog is at my house, again
But I live somewhere else
I swear I’ve had this dinner before
I know I’ve heard that song
My future’s not what I thought
I think I thought it wrong

[Chorus]
It’s one on one
Two for life
Thought that you were on my side
Lonesome is a state of mind
I couldn’t change it, so don’t ask me anymore, I’m one
Two for life
Thought that you were on my side
Lonesome is a state of mind
No, I won’t be lonely anymore

[Verse 2]
But now I take the train
It’s good enough for me
Time, it takes an edge
And grinds it clean
Turns a scar to a seam
I’ve shot this picture before
Tell me what’s that song? (It’s killing me)
My future’s up in the air
Guess I’ll play along

[Chorus]
It’s one on one
Two for life
Thought that you were on my side
Lonesome is a state of mind
Yeah, the future’s over, don’t drag me anymore, I’m done
Two for life
Thought that you were on my side
Lonesome is a state of mind
No, you’re not lonely when you’re hanging with yourself

[Bridge]
I was one
Two was nice
Twenty-nine and misaligned (Twenty-nine and misaligned)
But now I need to take my time (Now I need to take my time)
I think I’ll take it, show that kid to the door

[Outro]
(Lonesome is a state of mind)
Yeah, the future’s over, don’t drag me anymore, I’m done
(Thought that you were on my side)
(Lonesome is a state of mind)
No, you’re not lonely when you’re hanging with yourself
(Let’s do a, uh, let’s listen back on you and I’ll just stand here)
