i have learned the hard way
that i am alone
and i always will be
they have told me that i am not
where are they now?
i ask into a cold
dark room
where i sit in silence
where the silence suffocates me
i welcomed it once
but now
i'd rather listen to the train
passing my house
than the silence i hear as i lie here
when i was younger,
all i wanted was to sleep
even now that's all i want
but the darkness
that sleep brings
scares me
i don't like the place i fall into
when i sleep
i'm tired
i'm alone
i want to go somewhere else
someplace better than here
someplace far away
i'm scared of the future
i'm scared of what it brings
and what it means
take me home, please
make sure i get home
i'm tired
i want to sleep
and i'm tired of sleeping alone
