Island in the Sun

Lonely in the open sea
Tender is the heart of mine
A state in which I'm broke again
Left drifting in the sands of time

Like an island isolated
In the waters of the sun
Burning brightly, exasperated
The work I make yielding none

All the weight of the world
Resting on one tiny point
No one to hold my frozen hands
Lonely and I again are joint

Sleep in droves seems to elude me
A madness strikes my open mind
Sorrow pierces through my armor
My heart is broken one last time

I drift along these fiery waters
Afloat the sea alone with none
My heart is longing for another
Yet, I'm an island in the sun
