Insulated by the masses
In my cozy empty hall
Free from all of these distractions
I don't feel a loss
Addicted to the silence
In my time spent alone
The hunger pangs consume me
This consummate life
Here I am again
Lamenting who I could have been
All those I ignored
Loved ones, family, friends
And here I am again
All this pressure in my head
Vacuum of my history
And the life I could have had
Things are simpler here
In my cozened empty heart
Half of me out of the doorway
Half of me inside
A smile for the heartache
Of those close enough to see
Everything I'm hiding from
Not least of all me
I cannot take the pity
I will grin at every joke
Nothing if not nothing
Alone
I am OK, I swear to noone
I'm feeling right at home
Nothing if not nothing
Alone
I'd like to be alone
I will always be alone
I will never be alone
