alone
i'm sitting here inside myself
forcing another laugh.
sometimes the tears can't flow any longer.
sometimes the days can't be sad.
it's reached a point of decision,
this life we've decided to live.
now that we've ignored all the issues,
there's little left to give.
we really need to open ourselves.
we really need to share.
i'm ready now, but so afraid
that you won't join me there.
i once had a life that was different.
i once had dreams and fears.
i still have them all but they've changed now
with all of these passing years.
you can't deny you've been part of that change
i can't regret the decisions i've made,
and now, again, i look to my soul
for the answers i feel like i'll never know
i'm sitting here alone again.
i don't know where you are again.
sometimes the tears run so smoothly.
sometimes the days are nothing but sad.
