Drove half way to town last night and I turned around
In a field full of fireflies making such a lonely sound
As my headlights flashed on a mailbox by the road
I realized that I was living in a new zip code

Well, I'm living in Lonesome, USA
Population one since yesterday
Living and dying in the hell I made since you've been gone
Right now, my mind's in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm living in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA

I never knew the sound of silence could be so loud
It's hard getting used to living in an empty house
Yeah, I know I can come and go any time I please
But there's something I miss about you waiting up on me

Well, I'm living in Lonesome, USA
Population one since yesterday
Living and dying in the hell I made since you've been gone
Right now, my mind's in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm living in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA

Hey, I could drive all night and be right here where I am
And still be just as lost 'til you come back
Hey, I look around here and it don't take long to see
Oh, where I am right now's no place to be

Lonesome, USA
Population one since yesterday
Living and dying in the hell I made since you've been gone
Right now, my mind's in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm living in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA
Hey, I'm living in Lonesome, Lonesome USA
Hey, I'm living in Lonesome, Lonesome USA
