Alone

I know that you're lonely I can see it written in your eyes Behind your crooked smile Lives a fear you can no longer hide You've built an ivory tower Locked the door and threw away the key Hiding in the shadows Thinking that the world's your enemy The world's an ugly place when you're alone But you don't have to face it on your own You don't need to hide Locked away inside You're not alone You tried to live among them Pretending you were just another sheep But they treat you like an alien Sensing that you're different underneath So you made your life a fortress Built a wall around your broken heart But now the walls are crumbling The isolation's tearing you apart The world's an ugly place when you're alone But you don't have to face it on your own You don't need to hide Locked away inside You're not alone Locked in solitary Unaware you've always held the key For you designed this prison And no one else can ever set you free The world's an ugly place when you're alone But you don't have to face it on your own You don't need to hide Just let me inside You're not alone You're not alone You're not alone
