I'll Still Be
from Kerrigan-Lowdermilk LIVE Extras
from The Woman Upstairs
I should care that you get the story straight,
But I don’t.
I should care that my second chances come too late and I…
I…
I should burn with passion,
Fear,
Or shame,
But I don’t.
I should feel the room light up when you call my name but I…
I…
I can cut through the crowds,
Make my way down the street,
Hold eye contact,
Smile,
Stand, and
Speak.
I can go out with friends,
Lose myself in the lights.
I can lie in my lover’s arms at night.
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be…
I’ll still be alone.
I should care that you’re not like other men,
But I don’t.
I should care that
I’ll make the same mistakes again but I…
I…
I should care that you’re walking out the door.
But I cared so long,
And now I can’t care no more.
No, I… I… I can cut through the crowds,
Make my way down the street,
Hold eye contact,
Smile,
Stand,
And speak.
I can lie in my lover’s arms at night.
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be…
I’ll still be alone.
So I don’t care if you don’t try
‘Cause this was all one long goodbye,
Like I don’t care if you let go.
I’ll still be standing ‘cause I know
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be,
I’ll still be…
I’ll still be alone.
