Alone
Singularity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I see you, a face in a crowd
Walking through my dreams, I'm calling out loud
Sometimes I forget you are gone away
I wake in the sunshine to a cold and crying day
Sometimes I hold you but only in my dreams
I wake up and you're gone Like the morning sunbeams
Sometimes I follow down the stony way
Follow your footsteps, never go away

Sometimes I have to stop and stare
When I see a face with your wind-blown hair
The pain is like a knife and it cuts through me
Then I feel the agony

Sometimes I hear you
Laughing down the hall
But I know I can't see you
But I know I can't see you
You're not there at all
Sometimes I hold you
Kiss your sleeping head
But only in my dreams
When I forget
When I forget that you're dead

Drifting through my life
Living with my memories of how we used to be




There has to be a way
To break through this wall of pain

I think they really make the track! Each to their own though.

I listened to this music so much a few years ago and going back to it now brings me so much nostalgia. I can't even explain it, it's like happy depression.

Summed up exactly, glad I'm not the only one.
