He's sound asleep
But I am wide awake
The tighter his embrace
the more lonely I become
Trying to wipe away the tears
before the salty, fat drops reach his skin
revealing my darkest secrets
Revealing the loneliness that consumes me
The loneliness that haunts me
The loneliness that fails to be conquered...
even by the tenderness in his eyes
Revealing the loneliness...
that will lead to my demise
