But it's almost always never you Never you

Lollapalooza Edition
Artist- Lissie
Song of the day- When I'm alone

There are some artists that are just better live. And even though I have yet to experience Lissie up close, it is obvious even in live videos like today's that she can blow any audio mixes out of the water with her live vocals. Just add her to the list of people I've been dying to see and also artists I desperately wish I was. She defines the term raw talent. Everything about her music is rough, hard, a proper soundtrack to any smokey whole in the wall bar, can probably kick your ass and goes down like melted butter. Now that's what rock n roll should be according to me.



I turned my back
You were gone in a flash
Like you always do
You've always gone off somewhere else
And when the phone rang
And I thought it was you
And I sprung like a kid who's just got out of school
But it's almost always never you
Never you

I screamed like a child
My insides went wild

When I'm alone with you
You make me feel, you make me feel
When I'm alone with you
You are the one, you are the one
When I'm alone with you
You make me feel, you make me feel
When I'm alone with you
You are the one, you are the one

And when I reach out and I only grab air
And it kills me to think that you never did care
And it's hopeless
You've always run off somewhere else
I'm throwing a tantrum
Why are you such a phantom?

When I'm alone with you
You make me feel, you make me feel
When I'm alone with you
You are the one, you are the one
When I'm alone with you
You make me feel, you make me feel
When I'm alone with you
You are the one, you are the one

Reminds me of home
When you're around me
Next time you leave, don't go without me
No oh no
When I'm alone with you
You make me feel, you make me feel
When I'm alone with you
You are the one, you are the one
