alone - Capstan, Shane Told

I recall the days of youth

A solace found in every word

And with each note, my pain was soothed

Embraced by sullen sounds I heard

The grief and heartache

Screaming at me

So distraught, but

Somehow calming

The only thing that gave me hope

That kept me here when I wanted the rope

Tell me if you’re hurting

I need to know that

All of this is worth it

The pain you’re feeling now

Can I ease the sorrow that you have known?

You are never alon

Scream into the emptinss

So much to say with no release

A place to hide without defense

A static voice that brings relief
