Loneliness

Loneliness,
I’m afraid of you
I’m a friend to you
Loneliness,
I’ve forgiven you
I’ve forgotten you

I’m awash in a sea of people
Just living their own lives taking their own time
I don’t want this feeling
So why should I care if there’s anyone there?
I’ll bury my phone at last
Skip like a stone off the plank
I’m better alone I swear
One day I’ll feel whole anywhere

Loneliness,
I’m afraid of you
I’m a friend to you
Loneliness,
I’ve forgiven you
I’ve forgotten you

No longer with my head in the sand
I’ll be like the water that divides up the land
I’m really a ghost, can’t you see?
A vapour a trace of an energy
While I’m huffing and puffing I hope I don’t explode
And expose all the flaws of a life on the road.
