Alone -

Walking out alone at night

I stroll past lanes of candlelight

All the dolls they seem so strange

Inside they try to hide their pain

I turn to face my greatest fear

An empty room is someone here?

And yet the stairs seem dark and long and strange

As if they just go on for days

All my life I’ve tried so hard to play this game alone

Are you sure you will not lose, father?

I try to be strong forever alone

God I am lost and I’m bleeding

I cover my scars to bury the pain

Is this a life that’s worth living?

I come home to find my heart in a vice

My confidence finally is broken

I find her with wings that hold her above

God I am numb and I’m shaking.

Heal the loss and heal the pain

And try to make us whole again, oh god

Give me strength to cut this flesh away
