I thought being away from home
Would be something I'd feel proud of,
Yet it was something I'd detest,
J'arrive en solitaire, but difference is
I'd miss everything, my mother
The littlest touch of home,
J'arrive en solitaire, but difference is
I'd miss everything, my mother
The littlest touch of love.
I thought solitude was comforting
But what solitude is—sometimes—
A bag of bones.
