ALONE IN A ROOM // LYRICS:

I've been away, a little while
sometimes I just can't help myself
When my mind’s running wild,
I seem to lose grip on reality
And I try to disregard the crazy things the voices tell me to do,
but it's no use

I tried to own it, write songs about it
Believe me I tried, in the end I needed to breathe
Find inspiration, some kind of purpose
To take a second to face the shit that makes me, me

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream

A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall tryna put words on a page

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room

I saw the world a couple times,
tried to cure the ache with absence
But that hole was still a hole and my mind kept playing tricks on me
Feeling older every day, took everything I had to not crash and burn, but I'm starting to learn

Sometimes I'll fall down
sometimes I'll lose hope
But those days will be few if I keep my feet on the ground
I might be lonely, but I ain't alone here
So I keep pushing the limits of what makes me, me

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream

A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall tryna put words on a page

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room

I can be better than I was
I can be better than I am

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream

A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall tryna put words on a page

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room

  • Recently lost my wife of 30 years. This song has become a huge part of the grieving process for me. Still have not sat alone in a room and said it out loud, but I am getting there.
  • @joeykse8604
    This song was definitely meant to be acoustic! Danny's voice is like a fine wine...only gets better with age.
  • @Pack121
    We need more acoustic Asking Alexandria. What a voice, man. What. A. Voice.
  • @AviaStancil
    The way Cam and Ben play with opposite hands is satisfying
  • If you came up to me in 2009 and showed me this video and said this was Asking Alexandria in almost 10 years, I wouldn't believe you. They've grown so much as a band and it's truly phenomenal.
  • @lancemartin9513
    I did 14 years in a state penitentiary. This describes every day of those years.
  • @cjbj17
    They should release a full acoustic album. So beautiful. Between this and Into The Fire, both are amazing acoustic versions.
  • @imangel8847
    Danny sings like an angel and screams like a demon. Ben can play the hell outta any acoustic!
  • @Floodyink
    This song has made me realise that today is not the day to leave my family with endless pain and torture, so I'll be here for another while,

    "Я готов принять любую реальность кроме той, в которой тебя нет.." 💔💔
  • Hard to believe this is the same band that gave us stand up and scream, reckless and relentless, and from death to destiny. (Not bashing them at all they’re incredibly talented.)
  • I've listened to this version since it came out.. basically everyday . I don't think my mental illness has ever related to a song this much.. and it makes me feel safe. Thank you
  • @JossueND
    I sat alone in the room and realize I wasn't alone, Jesus was with me💛
  • @ManoImp
    One of the most beautiful versions in Acoustic for me. Jesus... it's so fucking beautiful that music.
  • @KeYLow1992
    I ruined a lot of relationships because of my depression and anger. Suicidal thoughts and a few attempts. I never sought help or did anything to change. Drank a lot of alcohol to suppress all those feelings. It came out and I burned a lot of things. Just this past year I started getting help and taking medication realizing I have to work on these problems. Sometimes it's still hard but one battle at a time and as my mom (a woman who was like one to me) always said "one day at a timel." She past away last year but I know she's happy how far I have made it. So this song hits home for me. Really explained me and everything I was and still am going through.

    Who else is still listening in 2023?? I’m a big fan of Asking Alexandria, and I enjoy every song that they’ve released. ❤
