It was great at the very start Hands on each other Couldn't stand to be far apart Closer the better Now we're picking fights and slamming doors Magnifying all our flaws And I wonder why, wonder what for Why we keep coming back for more Is it just our bodies? Are we both losing our minds? Is the only reason you're holding me tonight 'Cause we're scared to be lonely? Do we need somebody just to feel like we're alright? Is the only reason you're holding me tonight 'Cause we're scared to be lonely? Too much time, losing track of us Where was the real? Undefined, spiraling out of touch Forgot how it feels All the messed up fights and slamming doors Magnifying all our flaws And I wonder why, wonder what for It's like we keep coming back for more Is it just our bodies? Are we both losing our minds? Is the only reason you're holding me tonight 'Cause we're scared to be lonely? Do we need somebody just to feel like we're alright? Is the only reason you're holding me tonight 'Cause we're scared to be lonely? Scared to be lonely Even when we know it's wrong Been somebody better for us all along Tell me, how can we keep holding on? Holding on tonight 'cause we're scared to be lonely Even when we know it's wrong Been somebody better for us all along Tell me, how can we keep holding on? Holding on tonight 'cause we're scared to be lonely Is it just our bodies? Are we both losing our minds? Is the only reason you're holding me tonight 'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
