How Do You Get That Lonely Lyrics - Off To Join The World - Blaine Larsen

It was just another story printed on the second page 

Underneath the Tiger's football score 

It said he was only eighteen, a boy about my age 

They found him face down on his bedroom floor 

There'll be services on Friday at the Lawrence Funeral Home 

Then out on Mooresville highway, they'll lay him 'neath a stone 

How do you get that lonely, how do you hurt that bad 

To make you make the call 

That havin' no life at all is better than the life that you had 

How do you feel so empty, you want to let it all go 

How do you get that lonely and nobody knows 

Did his girlfriend break up with him, did he buy or steal that gun? 

Did he lose a fight with drugs or alcohol? 

Did his Mom and Daddy forget to say I love you son? 

Did no one see the writing on the wall? 

I'm not blamin' anybody, we all do the best we can 

I know hindsight's 20/20 but I still don't understand 

How do you get that lonely, how do you hurt that bad 

To make you make the call 

That havin' no life at all is better than the life that you had 

How do you feel so empty, you want to let it all go 

How do you get that lonely and nobody knows 

It was just another story printed on the second page 

Underneath the Tiger's football score
