Waking up on the empty streets
With half a blue sky above
Looking around but I'm all alone
I hold back my tears
You aren't there to chase my fears
You promised I wasn't alone anymore
But I'm back to being an orphan
I wish I could call out your name
But could you even hear me
Over the chaos of humanhood
No way you would deign to look my way
You promised you'd stay with me
Through fire and swirling seas
You told me everything would be alright
You pulled me out of hell
So many times I can't tell
But now illusions have fallen
Make-believe has lost all magic at last
I'm screaming out your name
But you can't even hear me
Over the chaos of humanhood
I knew you wouldn't deign to look my way
But where are you now
Right now that I need you
You gave hope and a home
A shoulder to cry on
And arms to embrace the child I was
You made four walls my safe heaven
You were the only one to care
When nobody else was there
But now I'm welcomed by loneliness
Stuck with my answerless question
Why have we fallen so far out of touch?
