The Dear Hunter What It Means to Be Alone Lyrics

This song is off of Act III: Life and Death by The Dear Hunter
Personally, this is my favorite song off the new album, and I find the album absolutely
After Act I came out, I didn't think they could top it. They topped it with Act II

It proved to be a little bit more difficult to figure this out than I anticipated, so if
are any corrections just let me know. But, I'm pretty sure that this is correct as it
shown.
|--What It Means to Be Alone--|

A cause for suffering, and reason not to die alone
Oh but
*Repeat Chorus*
With our feet beneath us, and our hands to the sky
We extend our limbs begging "why, oh, why?"
Don't turn away
*Repeat Pre-Chorus*
Prayers from above never answered quite enough
Looking up, never offered you too much
Now the only one you have is...
