Alone
It's all I know
I take no solace from it
For it is my silent killer
Only I can see it approaching
No one to turn to
No one to lean on
Shoulders offered but they don't really want to stay

Can't blame them
Gotta save myself
But I can't do more than breathe
Than survive each day
Each night
Numb, fading I guess
But it's okay, don't weep
I expect no love
No tears or flowers
I'm not surprised, what ever comes
You wouldn't understand
Don't try to
But I don't mind, not anymore
I'm used to it
I always knew this would be my death
I always knew I was alone
