"it was a lonely holiday.
i was alone, you were away.
in fayetteville or in another state.
there's so many towns i hate.

when you leave me, it breaks me like a bone.
but it's never as bad as when you come home.
thought so much about suicide,
parts of me have already died.

lonely, baby, i'm not lonely.
baby, i'm not -- i've got my imaginary friends.
happy, baby, i'm so happy.
baby, i'm so -- i've got my imaginary friends.

and if you don't love me, would you please pretend?

it was a lonely holiday.
i was alone, i was afraid.
the bedroom walls were closing in,
it must be closing time again.

when you leave me, it breaks me like the note,
that you said got stuck in your throat.
thought so much about suicide,
parts of me have already died.

lonely, baby, i'm not lonely.
baby, i'm not -- i've got my imaginary friends.
happy, baby, i'm so happy.
baby, i'm so -- i've got my imaginary friends.

and if you don't love me, would you please pretend?"-- lonely holiday/old 97's
