Trying To Fill the Lonely
Tremendously trying to fill the hollow void between us
Radiant sun shimmers oh so shyly from on high
Yet, the maroon moon is just a day away, so hush your fuss
I remember crying tears of joy that I can't deny
Nothing to worry about, but attempting to be happy in lonesome hours
Gravity makes my carrion body fall in midair and I collapse like the twin towers
Tortured to the core by solitude's hold on my high spirits of gold and silver
Oh no, you don't understand half of what I've been through, but whatever
Feeling my way out of darkness all over again
Illuminated by icky igloo-icy isolation altogether as usual
Loving the fact that I'm on my own, but not alone and then
Lonely you and I get in touch with each other in a delightful duel
Tell me that you care about me affectionately
Hoping you'll see me through this tribulation
Embarrassed to say that I've been there, done that - feels grand to be lonely...
Lovely lament longingly hangs on to me still
Overgrown by odium over and over again, just chill and don't be a pill
No one notices that I'm a long-lost stranger of the deep
Engrossed in quietude and I crawl in silence like a creep
Lying about the truth won't get you anywhere in life, you know?
You, dead silence, are alone, but not on your own and that is so
