Alone

Alone

Sometimes it seems like the whole world is falling on my shoulders,
somethings wrong and I can't hold it together;
It's rainin' in my heart, pourin' in my soul,
dreams come undone, promises don't last forever.

Sometimes I have to wonder what I did,
to deserve the life I have been given;
sometimes I close my eyes and pray,
'cause I know life should be worth livin'.

So I hold on for one more day,
tellin' myself that everything will be okay;
but when the night begins to fall,
and the demons come to call,
I feel myself slippin' into the darkness,
reachin for a hand outside this hopelessness...but I'm alone.

Some say that you make life,
everything you want it to be,
but inside I'm dyin',
cause you know this just ain't me.

I'm not one to fall with broken wings,
not one to let go of oh-so-precious dreams;
but I'm not clingin' to the things that I used to,
and there's no way to stop it, so it seems.

So I hold on for one more day,
tellin' myself that everything will be okay;
but when the night begins to fall,
and the demons come to call,
i feel myself slippin' into the darkness,
reachin for a hand outside this hopelessness...but I'm alone.

Someday soon maybe the sun will shine again,
the things i've done won't hurt you anymore;
but i won't make promises, you know they just don't last,
and i just don't know what life has in store.

I can't take away your pain,
when i can't take away my own;
but don't you dare give up,
don't etch your fate in stone.

Just hold on for one more day,
tell yourself that everything is gonna be okay;
and when the night begins to fall,
those demons come to call,
you feel yourself slippin' into the darkness,
reach your hand outside the hopelessness...cause you are not alone....
