There’sa tale told by fools of a fairytale world
Filledwith dreams,
Wherenight never falls and honey flows wild
Inthe streams.
Butwhen twilight comes crashing, and your waiting here
Bythe phone.
Andit finally hits you, the meaning
Ofbeing alone.
It’sa feeling that settles inside to tell you it’s true.
Theone thing you thought was forever is over and through.
It’sa double-edged blade that slices and cuts to the bone.
Youjust never get use to the silence
Ofbeing alone.
Thereis no way to describe all the emptiness
Thatyou’re feeling inside.
Youlook in the mirror but there’s no reflection.
Yourheart has gone looking for someplace to hide.
Noone to free you.
Noone to call but yourself.
Youhave a choice to rescue your soul
Andclimb down from your shelf.
Doyou swim murky waters
Orlet yourself sink like a stone?
It’sall up to you; you don’t have to face it
Alone.
