Ingrid Michaelson - Die Alone Lyrics






I woke up this morning with a funny taste in my head.
Spackled some butter over my whole grain bread.
Something tastes different, maybe it's my tongue.
Something tastes different, suddenly I'm not so young.

I'm just a stranger, even to myself.
A re-arranger of the proverbial bookshelf.
Don't be a fool girl, tell him you love him.
Don't be a fool girl, you're not above him.

I never thought I could love anyone but myself.
Now I know I can't love anyone but you.
You make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Maybe I won't die alone.

Kiss the boys as they walk by, call me their baby.
But little do they know, I'm just a maybe.
Maybe my baby will be the one to leave me sore.
Maybe my baby will settle the score.

I never thought I could love anyone but myself.
Now I know I can't love anyone but you.
You make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Maybe I won't die alone.

What have I become?
Something soft and really quite dumb.
Because I've fallen, oh, 'cuz I've fall-fallen, oh 'cuz I've fall-fall-fallen
So far away from the place where I started from.

I never thought I could love anyone.
I never thought I could love anyone.
I never thought I could love anyone,
But you, but you, but you, but you, but you
But you make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Maybe I won't die alone.

    If i could imagine what a siren sounds like...it would probably sound like Ingrid Michaelson.

    D.... C....

    +Don Chon Are you speaking of mermaids or sirens? They are 2 different things.Check the english dictionary.

    D.... C....

    The greek kind.

    D.... C....

    +Nihil Islands he said siren... and mermaid is just another version of the siren myth.

    D.... C....

    If you want to hear sirens just start a large fire and wait.....

    D.... C....

    I was thinking like, alarm siren or copcar siren. Just imagine a copcar chasing a suspect while Ingrid Michaelson is playing at full volume, or you know a nuke is coming when you hear her voice
