All Alone, All Along

I was on a swing Bring us peace in mind In the end, I had to get off of it I was dancing for hours I found my place above the city My eyes begin to water… Life’s a bother – A real, big bother Brother…oh brother… Stabilize me please Tranquilize the compassionless skies, As bitter as telling lies Energize me with your breeze For the sake of my safety Brother…oh brother… Put my mind at ease… Make me as tall as the majestic trees For I am brought low…and left to be (All alone…all along)x3 I was listening to my sister’s piano playing Bring me peace in mind…before I grow blind In the end, I follow you like that picture of geese on the wall I fell on the floor…the light cowers Away from the nighttime…I found that I belong in the mountains – as the night pushes away the day, Life’s a sad song, a real sad tune of a song Mother…oh mother… Reflect on me please Embrace the mournful skies, Purifying the poverty, driving away all doubts and whys Will you pray on your knees? For the sake of our safety Father…oh father… Give her time and nurture her… I feel her…I know she’s unsure Cheer her up like the dazzling stars For I’m friends with Gravity …heal her scars Look after her and forget about me, for I am (All alone…all along)x3 Alone, I roam I’m seeking shelter… A placid place called Home I can’t hold on any longer Might as well let go for the time being So, I decide to…let go… Dread spanks me to death Alone, I groan My mind has been blown As if a bomb was planted in my brain Am I turning insane by this unbearable pain? I’m just waiting for the sun to bloom in the sky Sometimes, I ask God why… Why has tragedy ensnared me? Why am I in this chamber of insanity? I let my doleful spirits go…the wind will blow it away… I lay my weary head down to bed… The sun will rise in no time…wait your turn I yearn for this burn Of rejection and loneliness to unleash me Voices haunt me… Voices taunt me… There’s no room for rejoicing I object! I refuse to be trapped in desolation YOU WILL NOT TAKE AWAY MY WELLBEING… I’ll say this without hesitation You will witness my frustration… Reach out to me Flee from me…misery Something’s missing…in my life Something’s wrong…I can sense it in your eyes I can read your mind… Don’t let the clouds smother me… Tears cloud my eyes and I can’t help but cower away Are you praying for a merciful day? Are you grazing in fields of flowers? How long will this last? For hours? I’m listening to these lies I’m starting to believe it Don’t wave your heartless goodbyes This journey is more like a Poverty Pit Search for Him like hidden treasure For the sake of our heart’s desire Has sin and spitefulness devoured us like hell’s fire? Bring us to the gates of sacred bliss For we are distraught…and we’re left here All alone…all along… We will earn our freedom Why are we overflowing with alarm and grief? We will enter the Kingdom God has promised it will bring us true relief So, have faith in Him and we’ll be Together as one…right from the start…
