I Walk Alone

Well I don't understand the anger
A bunch of shit that just don't matter
A tongue as forked as any snake I've known

Spitting forth your venom freely
Your eyes bleed red with vengeance
I see but I just cannot understand

Though I can't recall the reasons
The weeks have turned to seasons
Unlike so many times before
This time I need you to know
That I've been stripped of all my pride
Of this to you, I must confide
For this I must atone
I walk alone...

Your fear leads to unhappiness
A ring of fire around your chest
Till the soul inside begins to die

Lit the fuse upon the powder keg
Watched will glee as it burned to ash
The hate inside you rages further on

But you cannot hide what you cannot see
Change won't come so easily
If you love yourself you may be just in time

No philosophy will win
Just a game of sink or swim
We had each other and life then weren't so bad

Though my hearts broke into pieces
For a million different reasons
Unlike, unlike before
I'm begging you to show
Annihilated is my pride
How do we bridge this great divide
For this alone I must atone
For these things and many many more
I walk alone...
