Here I am, alone.
Do I give myself away,
wearing thin down to the bone?
Who am I today, if nothing but a mystery?

Here I am, alone.
Consumed by this emptiness.
A melancholy tone,
Derived from being such a pessimist.

Here I am, alone.
Condemned to this desolate life.
I welcome the unknown,
Tired of such strife.

Here I am, alone.
So painfully alone.
