Alone the Fear

As I’m sitting here all alone
Just another night, another time
My crazy ways have seen better days
With a loser’s view, well that’s nothing new

Barely awake with semi conscious dreams in me
Creating feelings of worthless self pity
I’m plotting crimes in my mind 
At the hands of this paused time
Just waiting and hoping for a simple sign

I keep telling myself, is it time to get away
To search and find myself a better day
Or can things be like they were before
When no one ever seemed to shut the door

Time is slipping away from me in a misty haze
Will I or can I ever really change?
I must move forward and not live in the past
This time I must make it last

Loneliness and fear have grabbed hold of me
Are they ever going to let me be?
I’m resorting to prayer and wish’s to stop feeling so alone 
They seem to fall on deaf ears as I sit and rot to bone
