Loneliness

In the night I see my shadows fall Empty streets, till I hear your distant call Dreams like ghosts haunting my fragile mind Chasing stars that are so hard to find Whiskers in the air, they speak my name Fingers reaching out but none to claim Heart on fire, burning with a cold desire Higher up I climb, the heat gets higher Loneliness is a friend and foe Endless nights where the tears do flow Desires of success wash over me In this silence, what am I meant to be In the night I see my shadows fall Empty streets, till I hear your distant call Dreams like ghosts haunting my fragile mind Chasing stars that are so hard to find Whiskers in the air, they speak my name Fingers reaching out but none to claim Heart on fire, burning with a cold desire Higher up I climb, the heat gets higher Loneliness is a friend and foe Endless nights where the tears do flow Desires of success wash over me In this silence, what am I meant to be Echoes of laughter I once knew Gone like smoke vanished into blue My reflection doesn't recognize A man who stands with empty eyes Counting scars beneath this fragile grain Strength and sorrow steel within my skin Rising through the ashes of despair In the quiet I find a place Loneliness is a friend and foe Endless nights where the tears do flow Desires of success wash over me In this silence, what am I meant to be In the night I see my shadows fall Empty streets, till I hear your distant call Dreams like ghosts haunting my fragile mind Chasing stars that are so hard to find Loneliness is a friend and foe Endless nights where the tears do flow Desires of success wash over me In this silence, what am I meant to be
