So Lonely

I thought I'd left the past behind The shadows that haunted my mind Every wound I tried to heal But now this emptiness feels too real Who left this loneliness at my door It wasn't here like this before Is it just another test to face Or a dream I can embrace So lonely, it's a weight on my soul Don't put my patience to the test So lonely, I'm searching for the light But this shadow won't fade away Every step I take, it's by my side No matter how far I run or hide The echoes of my heart's silent plea To find the strength to be set free Who left this loneliness at my door It wasn't here like this before Is it just another test to face Or a dream I can embrace So lonely, it's a weight on my soul Don't put my patience to the test So lonely, I'm searching for the light But this shadow won't fade away I'm weary from this endless fight Against the dark, I crave the light But even in my darkest hour I'll find the strength, I'll find the power So lonely, it's a weight on my soul Don't put my patience to the test So lonely, I'm searching for the light But this shadow won't fade away I'll stand up, I'll be strong In the night, I'll carry on Though this loneliness surrounds I'll rise above, I won't back down
