Lonely Am I
Lonely are the nights,
lonely are the days,
lonely am I in so many ways.
Lonely are the seasons,
lonely are the years,
so lonely am I that it brings tears.
Lonely is this place,
lonely is my life,
lonely am I that I reach for a knife.
Lonely is this court room,
lonely is my sentence,
so lonely am I, that I ask for repentance.
