i am glad to be alone
selfish and ashamed
straight down to the bone
everything stays the same

the sun it comes and goes
like it always has before
just now a bit more slow
burns me to the core

dreams are only dreams
there to pass the time
only in my dreams
our spirits still intertwine

today i was alone
eating at my thoughts
all the things i know
the happiness it brought

but i am glad to be alone
i swear, i swear, i swear
straight down to the bone
everything i lay bare

settle

i wish i was the moon
gentle fluorescent hues
and as crazy as it may sound
i'd settle right next to you

i trust that the waves
will carry everything from view
except the light i shine
as i settle right next to you
