about

I wrote this song in 2016. It expresses my deep feelings about loneliness. As I get older I feel it more and more. Yet, it is a special feeling; one that I value as part of my personality.

lyrics

In my lonely time I've come to understand
That there will always be this dream
I can still recall every single hour
When I heard the voices scream
No matter what I do everything is wrong
Except when I am here
Competition is indelicate I know
It only reasons to breed fear

What's required is a thicker skin I hear
Then and only then you're strong
But peeling back the layers of the missing years
In a vision that goes on
What's the payoff? What's the message that we're told?
What's the meaning of the sign?
Everyone of us needs passion to behold
In our lonely time

In my lonely time I delegate the scene
Move the pieces 'round the board
Holding back the thoughts which carry me away
Realization strikes the chord
I take roads that are so narrow and so long
And try to avoid the crooked trail
As I grow older my preferences remain
My soul and body though grow frail
