I keep my fan running all year
because the noise
keeps my roommate
from hearing me cry
And the breeze
keeps me cool
to remind myself
I'm undeserving of someone's warmth

It's okay
It's okay
Someone will love you deeply
One day
But until then
Lonely with him
You will stay
Until you gain the strength
To turn the other way
Because you know the love you need
To keep your soul at bay
And anything less
Isn't a price you should pay

Oh it's achy
Oh it's achy
My soul is quaking
1 of 7
But I'm so lonely
That I dream about heaven
Because it's not enough
I need all the love
And it's so tough
How it's not enough
And I'm ashamed
For my need of you
Has to be tamed
To 1 of 7
And it's hurts too much
How I feel your touch
And I'm still so lonely
But nothing will cure me
Not even your clutch
On only 1 of 7
Lonely one sad depressed love relationship help

My days are filled with adventure, you see
sniff flowers
watch a stranger
the movement of grass
your absence lingers
And then you walk through that door
my fun is over
the silence is loud
the air - sombre
we play tug of war
with the sheet that we share
the only thing keeping us a pair

— The End —
