Bearing its own will
I stand alone
Stranded; broken
Forgotten, on my own

I am just a window
Something you see through
If only you saw me
How I could see you

But now it's solitude
My only friend
It's only solitude
Unto my sorrowed end

Nothing's unbroken
Nothing's untouched
But with solitude
Reality, I've clutched

These shadows constrict
Imaginary fears
I thought I needed you
To clear these tears

I am just a window
Something you see through
If only you saw me
How I could see you

But now it's solitude
My only friend
It's only solitude
Unto my sorrowed end

Nothing's unbroken
Nothing's untouched
But with solitude
Reality, I've clutched

All these years
Sacrificing for you
Now you've left me stranded
With nothing left to do

There is only one true friend
One true peace
Solitude, it's you
With you, I'm at ease

But now it's solitude
My only friend
It's only solitude
Unto my sorrowed end

Nothing's unbroken
Nothing's untouched
But with solitude
Reality, I've clutched
