When I Am Alone
I know where I stand
But I stand alone
I know where I have been
But I have been their alone
I know where I have fallen
But I have fallen all alone
I know where I’ve been wrong
And I’ve been wrong alone.
Whisper to me
On those nights of despair
Move in me
When no one is there
Breathe on me
When I am down in this pit
For I know,
Yes, I know
This isn’t it.
I know where I have dreamt
I have dreamt those dreams alone
I know when I was strong
I was strong all alone
I know where I was right
I was right to stay alone
I know where I have feared
I have feared these things alone
Whisper to me
On those nights of despair
Move in me
When no one is there
Breathe on me
When I am down in the pit
For I know,
Yes,I know
This isn’t it.
I know where I have rehashed
I rehashed these things alone
I know where I was built
I was built their all alone
I know when I have lied
I have lied their alone
I know when I was judged
I was judged their alone.
Whisper to me
On those nights of despair
Move in me
When no one is there
Breathe on me
When I am down in this pit
For I know,
Yes, I know
This isn’t it.
