This Loneliness Is Killing Us

Why are you a deep shade of sad-blue? I’m feelin’ oh so unsure…reflect on me like a crystal-clear mirror . . . I’ve been by your side for so long…I’ve been waiting on the other side for so long Where have you been for so long? Are you some kind of impious, devious devil? Give it your all…x3 Nightfall x3 Hear me as I call Feeling lonely… We have wept forlornly . . . We’re not insane… I’ll remain sane… Hear me answering your call…x3 as I answer your call Give it your all x3 Nightfall x3 Hear me as I fall….. I’ve been there, done that – I was that lonely, black cat… You just gottah snatch that rat Just stand tall… Set us free from captivity… Loneliness puts us in chains of vanity… Be strong and bright forevermore gaily soar with me some more Give it your all… Give it all your energy & be brave… Give it your strength…catch us before we fall! Give it your best…God, there’s billions of souls to save! Give it your all… Be strengthened by being near a friend’s side Abide in His light… Be positive with all of your might fly like a peculiar bat, Taking flight in the ebony sky – there’s a time to explore search for hope in store On our own, all alone soon, we’ll be happy instead… we will not be doused in dread But, together, we’ll shower down healing rain We’ll feed the hungry people w-with bread Everyone feels lonely at some point… but, our bones won’t get out of joint Flames of uncertainty devour us… ruining our self-esteem… I’ll fix your broken dream But, you gottah get up and try… Don’t cry…you won’t die . . . We’re in the same, boisterous bus – we’re on each other’s team… don’t weep, don’t scream You need hope in mind to spread your wings and fly Stand tall… Give it your all… Graze in your own maze… Spell-bound in a graceful gaze… Seeking God’s praise… Catch me before I fall… Hear us as we call! ~ Give it your all though I’ve left you… Without a trace…without a trace… Don’t fall on your face…keep your pace Give in to your strength… GIVE IT YOUR ALL… Though you’ve been tossed to and fro…(I know you’re feeling low) Here and there…in all directions…like a children’s ball Let your inner inspiration glow and grow . . . . . . . (Let your optimistic spirits show…. Unveil yourself…get out of your shell, you know? Get out of your comfort zone We’re on our own, but never, ever alone You’re stronger than you realize You’re the one and only that I prize You’re not alone… You’re not a broken bone You’re not a failure… Your future ain’t a blur…why are you a deep shade of sad-blue? Though you’re left without a single, little clue…that’s for sure)
You left me hanging on the last string – you shed a sad tune on my song You let my tragedy sting…sing to me…come on, sing to me your lullaby, darling angel! ! !
Though you’re left without a single, little clue… Have you found your other shoe?
