Company

Melissa Etheridge

If you ask me I will say I'm fine
All pink like birthday girls and valentines
And then the stillness of the night reminds
That I don't like to be alone
My thoughts are race cars 
running 'round my head
They burst into flames 
and they crash into my bed
Until I fall into a dream instead
Where all my lovers turn to stone

And all I want is company
Someone to understand this misery
Send a reflection of myself to me
'Cause everybody needs some company

These times I'm living in 
just make no sense
Sometimes my face gets 
pushed against the fence
I want to scream out in my self-defense
But I don't want to be alone

And all I want is company
Someone to understand this misery
Send a reflection of myself to me
'Cause everybody needs some company

What is truth and what is fear
Will I find it under here
I know they're selling me a lie
But I'm first in line to buy
First in line to try

I find some sanity on the 
written page
Where life is worth more 
than a living wage
They say the battle's over 
now it's time to change
And I won't ever be alone

And all I want is company
Someone to understand this misery
Send a reflection of myself to me
'Cause everybody needs some company
I need some company
