Loneliness
Sittin' In This Bar
Just To Realize
That My Dreams
Have Never Been Away This Far
I Hardly Knew
What It's Like To Be Alone
They've Kicked Me Off
Of My Thrown
But In The End
I'll Be The One Who's Grown
Return To The Place
I Once Called Home
Surveying My Thoughts - There's This Tone
Tells Me I'm Better Off On My Own
I Need My Lonesome Place
To Find My True Yet Hidden Face...
...Though I Long For Your Embrace!
...Though I Know Alone I Freeze!
...Though I Long For This Pain To Cease!
...Though I'm Only Praying For Release!
...Though Alone I Can't Cure This Disease!
...I Beg You, I Beg You Please
You Can Make It All Go Away At Ease
But Still I Feel Like I Don't Belong
I Have Been Here For Far Too Long
These Walls Ain't Protecting Me No More
What Am I Staying For
I Guess Only To End Up Sore
That Couldn't Be All Worth Livin' For
Sadly Currently I Can't Find More...
