Walking through the door at night Awaits a quiet that I've grown tired of Some days I hope for it to move out Yet it sits in darkness awaiting my arrival As I settle in from a long day at work Candles are lit to keep me company Pull up a chair to my window Watch scenarios play out before my eyes These are the sneak previews of what is to come Life becoming lonelier as I approach golden years A painful silence will become my roommate Such a cruelty sentenced to us with lonely hearts

Painfully Silent
Walking through the door at night Awaits a quiet that I've grown tired of Some days I hope for it to move out Yet it sits in darkness awaiting my arrival As I settle in from a long day at work Candles are lit to keep me company Pull up a chair to my window Watch scenarios play out before my eyes These are the sneak previews of what is to come Life becoming lonelier as I approach golden years A painful silence will become my roommate Such a cruelty sentenced to us with lonely hearts
