"Company" lyrics - MELISSA ETHERIDGE

If you ask me I will say I'm fine
All pink like birthday girls and valentines
Then the stillness of the night reminds
That I don't like to be alone

My thoughts are race cars running 'round my head
Burst into flames and crash into my bed
Until I fall into a dream instead
All my love has turned to stone

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, it's pushed against the fence
I wanna scream out in my self defense
But I don't want to be alone

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 not first in line to buy, first in line to try

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

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