The melodic voices that once filled this home
Are now so long gone my voice echoes alone
The pain and the loss of my whole family
Reminds of how our lives, they aren’t really free

Why did you go and leave me alone
This structure can no longer be called my home
It’s only a place which my memories haunt
Occasionally laughter is forced to the front

It’s not natural for me to be like
A ghost in the hallway, my chair, on my mic
People who knew me before all this pain
Can rightfully say that I’m going insane

Yet I wouldn’t change it, even if I could
The pain keeps me grounded, on my knees like it should
I’m not strong enough all on my own
To get on my feet, so I stay alone

I cannot consciously allow anyone in
To do so would be selfish, a terrible sin
So instead I will just live, day by lonely day
And seek my solace in whatever method I may
