In a world of empty dreams I walk alone. In the dark where no one sees I walk alone. Alone among the barren trees, Restless in my wandering, The whisper of the falling leaves- "Alone." Fading to Nothing, Here I am. Lost in the wanting, Empty hands. Tired and angry, Cold as stone, I walk alone. Rough and cold against the skin. I am alone. Hold me close and draw me in... Alone. Encase me in shroud of green, Laid beneath the willow tree, Love was never meant for me. I walk alone. Reaching for something I cannot hold. Something is missing, Leaving me cold. The leaves keep falling, The cycle turns. Dry up, die, and burn. I lie down to die With all these fading dreams. One last time, I close my eyes, Sink beneath the falling leaves, Alone.

Among the Trees
In a world of empty dreams I walk alone. In the dark where no one sees I walk alone. Alone among the barren trees, Restless in my wandering, The whisper of the falling leaves- "Alone." Fading to Nothing, Here I am. Lost in the wanting, Empty hands. Tired and angry, Cold as stone, I walk alone. Rough and cold against the skin. I am alone. Hold me close and draw me in... Alone. Encase me in shroud of green, Laid beneath the willow tree, Love was never meant for me. I walk alone. Reaching for something I cannot hold. Something is missing, Leaving me cold. The leaves keep falling, The cycle turns. Dry up, die, and burn. I lie down to die With all these fading dreams. One last time, I close my eyes, Sink beneath the falling leaves, Alone.
