I walked up the steps in this old building The steps called out to me Eerily, and I followed the tug in my soul I am anxious But I follow wherever it tells me to go
Big windows In empty rooms Look out onto the street below I'm so high above everyone I say I feel like God I see all my friends Down below I am unattached, looking down on the world
Nothing compares to a warm embrace and eyes connecting and a radiant smile on a loved one's face But their is nothing quite like solitude It's quiet It's haunting, it's serene In solitude you can hear the whispers of your soul and discern clearly what they mean
I've always had trouble with connection I feel perpetually an alien even when I see I am loved I could never be truly convinced in my heart But I feel most loved and understood In the silence, In the comfort of withdrawal Is when I feel most connected To the life force from which I live.
As I walked down those steps Back into the living, breathing life of contradictions In it being so much futility and triviality I know that everything will be okay Even if, among a sea of people I feel as if I were the only one.
