Alone Lyrics
you gave me cold glass love
you've got teeth for biting
and you've bore a hole in me
you and me hot and cold
you have crossed all safely
while i teeter on my rope
better than me and i know
you are calm and symmetry
and i'm an empty hole
my envy of all you own
i want to be a possession you dust and won't let go
gentlest touch and sweetest sound
something you'll run back in for
when the house burns down
alone, alone doesn't feel so cold
alone, alone doesn't feel so cold
'cause your arms, your arms
they don't feel so warm
so come, come love
and take me home
what i am and what you are
some things just don't hold the way the night has trapped a star
alone...
you've got teeth for biting
and you've bore a hole in me
you and me hot and cold
you have crossed all safely
while i teeter on my rope
better than me and i know
and i'm an empty hole
i want to be a possession you dust and won't let go
something you'll run back in for
when the house burns down
alone, alone doesn't feel so cold
'cause your arms, your arms
they don't feel so warm
so come, come love
and take me home
some things just don't hold the way the night has trapped a star

i first heard this song on the OC. it was pretty good. that show has a good way of appropriating songs where they belong
I think this song is song lovely and in itself pretty self explanitory how sometimes it's better to be alone than in a loveless relationship 'alone doesn't feel so cold'
It's "gentlest touch and sweetest sound" not "hang me like paintings, towels".
