Loneliness (Stone Face)
Ah, I'm blue again
with cries wasted like
sand thrown to the wind
my heart breaks
Loneliness scares me I
hate being alone, broken
With a face of stone I
weakly brave the world
ripping my heartstrings,
praying to find the person
to tell yasashii uso* to me
Ah, I lose myself to the light
of the stars, they make me
jealous. They are always
embraced.
With my crumbling stone face
I turn off the lights, shut the
door and wait for darkness to
soothe me
Being alone is what I crave,
if only to be alone with my
special person
But, that person is fiction so
I take my delusions and make
them dance with me
I will always be alone
So I patch together my stone face
and brave the cold world and watch
the people pass, and I make visions
of illusionary realities
Because the best lies are built on truths.
*Yasashii Uso (Gentle Lies) by Chrome Shelled
