Hello loneliness my old friend
I have come to visit you again
Because visions of another being
Created in me hope deceiving
In the silent halls of my room
Built by the walls of my tomb
I still walk the streets all alone
The cold breeze chills me to bone
In my silent pain, I hear a cry
Telling me to believe another lie
In the silent halls of my room
Built by the walls of my tomb
Whispered words that I might keep dreaming
Echoes in my soul loudly screaming
In the tears of my empty despair
Telling me the truth that no one is there
In the silent halls of my room
Built by the walls of my tomb
In your hollow faces I see the same
We are the ones who hide in shame
Lying naked upon our silken bed
Knowing no one sees that we are dead
In the silent halls of our room
Built by the walls of our tomb
In the darkness of my room I saw
Hidden scars and major flaws
On a billion people may more
Bleeding alone behind closed doors
In the silent halls of their room
Built by the walls of their tomb
