Destined Lonely
Here I remain where my destiny pointed
Followed the path with a twist at each turn
Long was the road that appeared ever changing
After these years you would think I could learn
Safe in her arms feeling nothing could hurt me
Fingers entwined and her lips made of fire
Maple leaf dreams should have lasted forever
All that I wanted, my every desire
Open doors closed with their locks tightly bolted
Windows reflecting each shadow I see
Pulled a direction no fighting could waiver
Darkness converged on the image of me
Listening to echoes of words never spoken
All by myself on a wall made of stone
Hoping my tears are enough now to drown me
It had to be, I am destined alone
