My Lonesome Shell

I noticed a difference in you that is oh so true A kind of difference that is brand new, shining anew You are the beautiful shade of blue I keep on wishing upon a star to be with you I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears I see the light against the mountain tops I hear the splashing of many teardrops The rain is pouring loud amongst the sky of blue The insects down below are scattering about like morning dew I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears I see the wind blow against the prairies I am like a chandelier with dancing fairies The sun is shining aglow in your eyes of ocean blue The mammals up above are merrily frolicking so true I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears I flee from the view of vanity and seek vitality instead frankly I hear the lightning flash with much courageous creativity The clouds are forming into shrouds of endless residue and debris The birds high up above are joyfully singing a tune of liberty I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears You set fire to my soul I don't want to let you go You burn me to the extreme You ruined my self-esteem Let life's hardships take toll I don't want to be so gullible You drift away from my sight You floated away like a kid's kite I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears I want you near me to guide me to a peaceful haven I hold on to you so dear as I fly forward like a fearless raven Heal me from the scars of yesterday Get rid of the sorrow of tomorrow today I can't get a grip of myself anymore All my fears and nightmares run out the door I can't get enough of your hope in store I still adore you to the core and so much more I hear you calling me from afar... How can I heal your gruesome scar? I hear the thunder in your heart How can I mend you when you're tearing apart? I have grown accostumed to you But, you ignored me without a clue I have grown attached to you as well You got me out of my lonesome shell You got me out of my lonesome shell I have grown fond of you for many years But, you deserted me and left me in tears You have put me in flames You're playing your mind games How can you hurt me so carelessly? How can you let go of me so heartlessly? Yeah, yeah... You ruined my pride and confidence You tore apart my heart's desire in a sense I don't want to be blind all my life You and I face endless chaos and strife
