Lyrics

[Verse 1]
2AM, where do I begin?
Crying off my face again
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
[Verse 2]
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
[Verse 3]
Too afraid to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night
'Cause the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me till I fall asleep
I'm the ghost of a girl that I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
[Verse 4]
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
[Verse 5]
Broken pieces of
A barely breathing story
Where there once was love
Now there's only me and the lonely
[Verse 6]
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
