Lyrics Death - Jad Fair, Daniel Johnston

Death

I wanted to be free
But there was nothing left of me
I saw the emptiness in your eyes
Though I had to leave, something inside told me
It hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
I found that loneliness makes me ill
Till I found I could reach out to some girl
Like the girl on TV
Like a magazine that smiles at me
But it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
Way out in the deep blue sea
The fish swim like a family
The big fish eat the little fish
Till the bigger fish eats the bigger fish
And it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
I only wanted to be free
But the world was like a prison to me
When you’re alone in the darkness you can’t see
Maybe you can get the gist of me
Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
I was wondering what the after life was like
Somehow you’ll get your reward
Pillow for your head, whatever you want
Free refills of your great love soda
Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
Somewhere in the future I might not be there
I plan to live forever if I dare
I need to be happy, I need your affection
I need the kisses I’ve been missing
Cause it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
You might as well
Just worry yourself to death
Death
