I am alone in how I feel
My knees buckle and my blood runs cold
My heart drops to my feet
The words that I repeat in my head are the ones I wish you’d say to me
But I am alone in how I feel
The scenes that play in my mind are not real
But still I act them out as if the past can be changed
As if I can undo time
As if I can change your mind
Again I am alone in the way I feel
This love is a fabrication
A simple miscalculation
That has been synthesized
To soften the blow of rejection
When I am nothing close to perfection
I am alone
Because I am afraid to bare my soul
To tell secrets that cannot be untold
A burden that I must hold
Love has turned me to stone
In the darkness I am alone
