The Lonely Child

The Lonely Child

do you want to hear a long sad story?
born with a red heart, created with fury
my love has been broken into pieces
had to give up hope and I can't tell you why, why?
because of the sharp, destructive criticisms that has been said to me
as the lonely child

the lonely child, the only child
that's what I am, for now until this place dies
the lonely child
left behind and I’m too undecided
the lonely child
that’s what I am, for now until peace dies

where I sob
in my deep heart and lonely heart
I get a cold feeling surrounding me, its all for myself
I don’t want to tell myself
how much I miss myself, my old self
the way things used to be in the beginning
I need to think of things now and begin my brand new start
to make things go right
I need to end the loneliness
so end the long cold silence
of the lonely child

the lonely child, the only child
that's what I am, for now until this place dies
the lonely child
left behind and I’m too undecided
the lonely child
that’s what I am, for now until peace dies

can you tell what I've been feeling?
I don't know where I've been
I hope the pain will be healing
things I ask to do and what I can
stand against my hope for a chance
the loneliness exhausts me
and they steal more pieces of my soul away
there’s nothing that I can do and there’s nothing I can say
my body is falling apart the way a car is left to rust and fall apart
as a lonely child, the only child

the lonely child, the only child
that's what I am, for now until this place dies
the lonely child
left behind and I’m too undecided
the lonely child
that’s what I am, for now until peace dies

you too, discourage my luck
miss-understood in my life to my hope
you know its true
what you say suck
within my loneliness I see myself
and I really think I am my own friend
I don't rely on you
I say to myself
things you say, aren't they sin?
to what extent
they want to make me the lonely child
the only child

the lonely child, the only child
that's what I am, for now until this place dies
the lonely child
left behind and I’m too undecided
the lonely child
that’s what I am, for now until peace dies
