Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Strings of Sorrow by Eileen Manassian

Alone   Lyric By Eileen Manassian


Alone, alone..
.always alone
The pain I feel
cannot be known
This heart of flesh has turned to stone
Alone, alone...
I am alone


Chorus
Alone, alone...always alone
My dreams on wistful wings have flown
Depression has usurped my throne
Alone, alone...I am alone


Instrumental 

Alone, alone..
.always alone
The wind gives voice
 to primal groan
This world 
no empathy has shown
I'll live, I'll die,
 and rest...alone


Chorus
Alone, alone...always alone
My dreams on wistful wings have flown
Depression has usurped my throne
Alone, alone...I am alone

(Alone)

(Alone)

(I am alone)
