Good Company

V6

[Intro] Yeah. House is quiet tonight. Used to bother me. Now I kinda like it. ...Most nights. [Verse 1] Phone don't ring, I don't check like I used to, Stopped taking silence as something to lose to. Everybody left, I was stuck with the usual, Me and my thoughts getting way too mutual. Some people just won't care Why I talk to myself when there's nobody there. One plate dirty, one ass in the chair, One side of the bed getting plenty of air. That's funny. Till it ain't. Sometimes the quiet puts a fist in my chest, Sometimes I wonder if I settled for less. See everybody coupled up, looking blessed, Then they call me at midnight saying life's a fucking mess. So maybe I'm good. Maybe I'm strange. Maybe I got comfortable taking up space. Being alone ain't losing the race If I actually like the motherfucker in first place. [Pre-Chorus] I still get lonely. I won't lie about that. Still want somebody I can call when it's bad. But I don't need saving. I figured that out. There's a difference between being lonely And hating who's around. [Chorus] I'm in good company, Even when it's only me. Got an empty house, But I finally got some room to breathe. Yeah, I still want love, I just don't need it desperately. If nobody comes around tonight... I'm in good company. Good company. Good company. Turns out I ain't so bad When it's just me. [Verse 2] Table for one, yeah, I know what I want, Drive with no place, come home when I'm done. And it ain't motivational quotes on a wall, "Love yourself" underneath a sunset and font. I've hated this dude. Been cruel to him too. Said shit in the mirror I wouldn't say to you. That's real. Took years just to give myself slack, Quit treating every little flaw like a fact. Quit looking for somebody to fill what I lack, Whoever comes next shouldn't carry all that. Want 'em beside me, Not holding me up. Love in the glass, Not filling my cup. Maybe one day there's a coat by the door, Two sets of shoes and some shit on the floor. I'd like that. But I don't hate this anymore. [Chorus] I'm in good company, Even when it's only me. Got an empty house, But I finally got some room to breathe. Yeah, I still want love, I just don't need it desperately. If nobody comes around tonight... I'm in good company. Good company. Good company. Turns out I ain't so bad When it's just me. [Bridge] Some nights, I still reach across the bed. Some nights, I get too deep inside my head. But being lonely Ain't the same as being less. Let it hurt. Let it pass. Make some coffee. Laugh at my own dumb ass. Maybe happiness ain't loud. Maybe that's what I missed. Maybe peace is just a room You don't wanna escape yourself in. [Verse 3] Here's to the nights with nobody around, No notifications, no voices, no crowd. Just me and the hum of this half-sleeping town, Learning quiet don't mean something went down. I've lost some people. Some slipped, some I cut. I'd be full of shit if I said that's enough. I still wanna be wanted. I still wanna love. But loneliness ain't proof There's something wrong with me. There's a seat right here... But I'm okay if it stays empty. [Final Chorus] I'm in good company, Even when it's only me. Got an empty house, But I finally got some room to breathe. Yeah, I still want love. Hell, I hope it comes eventually. But if nobody comes around tonight... I'm in good company. Good company. Good company. I spent my whole life looking for somebody... Turns out... I ain't so bad When it's just me. [Outro] House is quiet tonight. Still gets lonely. ... But I like it here. (Snozbagged. Out.)
