• On My Own

  

  I stand here alone and tired in this life of mine

  Shouldering the pain and disappointments all on my own

  Wondering when one day someone will come along and extend a hand

  To walk by my side

  To hold me when I cry 

  Who will lay by me in the night 

  To ward off the terrors that plague my dreams

  Who will drive out the doubts that cloud my mind

  I have been that person for too many now

  And have been marred by the sight of their own scars

  But in this life I am cursed to walk alone

  Lost in the memories of the past 

  Drowning in the loneliness that has begun to consume me

  So do not fret when you see me cry

  Because it’s time to let go and leave this life I’ve known behind

  For somehow I will find that last ounce of courage in me

  To fuel a fire

  And brave the change I have no choice but to make

  So do not fret when you see me cry

  For this time I will find a way to hold my own
