Story Behind the Song
I was very depressed, and very alone. I was frustrated with life, and I just wanted out.
Lyrics
Loneliness- A feeling of depression, resulting from being alone.
You have no idea what it's like,
When it nibbles at your soul, and then takes a big bite,
It's the enemy in your dreams, that haunts and creeps,
As it enters your life, and now you can't sleep,
It makes you talk to yourself, when someone's listenin'
It's the force that made you miss your third day of workin',
'Cause it causes you to stay away for so damn long,
By the time someone's there, they're already gone,
You can't keep up, but the Jones is with you,
It makes you so confused, you don't know what the f--- to do,
You want somebody, and they just don't give a damn,
I'm just tellin' you how f---in' lonely I am.
(Chorus)
Deaf to everyone, blind to your face,
I'm the trash that you seem to displace,
I'm nothin' to you, when you have one life to live,
And now I'm not there, so I have nothin' to give,
But, when you think of me, you're so damn scared,
You shouldn't be, 'cause I really do care,
I want a new life to begin,
'Cause I don't ever want to be this lonely again.
I believed in myself, 'cause I knew I was better,
But at the same time, I was the one with my life together,
The closest thing to me, wanted to throw everything away,
For the past 6 months, my mind's gone astray,
'Cause she was my life, the only one I had,
Now I'm empty, that's why I feel so bad,
I can't be glad, I can't even be happy,
'Cause what I had in her, she took away from me,
She took my soul and my breath away,
I'm getting closer to dying every day,
I wish she realizes that she needs me,
And I need her, and I wouldn't be so lonely.
(Chorus 2x)
My mind's so out of place,
And I'm livin' by the hands of grace,
'Cause I'm not worth anything, my heart's well spent,
And no one wants the hole in my soul for rent,
But, why are we even wagering life?
'Cause you always push and pull, with all your mite,
And when you lose all of your strength,
No one is there to help you fill the tank,
'Cause deep inside, there's a blue flame that burns,
Now in the third degree, loneliness is about to occur,
'Cause I just have memories in the past,
That's all I live on, and no one is up to the task,
I can't scream for help, 'cause I'm by myself,
The world's turnin' into a jail, time to swing the belt,
My views on life, wouldn't be so bad, you see,
If I had someone, I wouldn't be so lonely.
(Chorus 2x)
