about

IT BEATS LIVING ALONE hitches a soulful vocal to big hooks, warm production and lyrics that ache at the cowardice and self-deception required to stay in a failing relationship.

lyrics

IT BEATS LIVING ALONE

Buried heads
We brush our problems
To one side
We've made our bed
But bed's the once place
We can't hide
Beneath the token speech
There's so much left unsaid
A solution's within reach
But neither of us has the nerve

Ah an easy option is attractive smetimes
Even living a lie
It beats living alone
Ah this feels really stupid sometimes
But I can't say goodbye
It beats living alone

I sometimes feel
Like the oldest child on Earth
Playing games
I just don't know
What freedom's worth
I guess I know the truth:
Don't want the villain to be me
So I'll pin my hopes on you
Will you to infidelity

Ah an easy option is attractive sometimes
Even living a lie
It beats living alone
Ah this feels really stupid sometimes
But I can't say goodbye
It beats living alone

Ah it beats living alone
Ah it beats living alone
