Alone

The lies that plead
The dancing, shaking fearful knees
My empty needs
There’s something taken out of me

Run away
No matter what I feel, it is this way
I can not stay
Forgive me, but you can’t dissuade

Burning eyes
Been given something I despise
I have died
It seems that all I do is ask it why

Home is gone
I’m lonely, falling, singing songs
I can’t belong
Nothing can ever last for long
