Now I face the world alone



You’re over me, and so now I face, the face of this world, alone.

From here on, I wake everyday, my thoughts and my body, my own.

Every shade and shaft of light, my eyes pick up on from here on out

I see only for myself

And don’t share it with the heart of anyone else



I step out into the darkness, afraid of what may come at me.

In the form of dreams, ideas and issues, and worse- my memories.

I have been fashioned by your hands Your mark is now upon me.

And I carry the weight of a broken heart that now belongs to me.



I ask the world how to get rid of you. Truly, once and for all

Since I cannot climb the clock towers arms

Pull them back, and erase before

But the world looks at me with sullen eyes

And shakes its head in disbelief

For everyday it is asked the same sad question

By a billion lovers before me

heh... if you think yourself better than the world... then you have nothing to worry about. Horns up and smile... lovers come and go... but you are forever... and soon you'll find someone who'll stand with you at world's end.

as long as you think yourself one of the better people in this world... you'll be ok. People leave because they can't see what's good for em... and that's their fault. Not yours...

keep to the music and your heart... and know that you always have your friends and others to keep you from falling.
