A Work In Progress


These are the lyrics for a song I've been working on. Whatcha think?






Is it over yet? That ache in your soul? 
Have you broken those bonds? To that thing called loneliness. 
The thing you can't quite escape, though you fight it like a wild cat,
Whispered promises of happiness, then stabbed you in the back


Break free! Oh, break free
From this thing called loneliness


Draws near again when you think you're free, can't find comfort in the friends you know
And where are they anyway, what of their promises made long ago?

Always glancing over your shoulder, to the left and to the right,
Always wary of it's vicious sting, always wary of it's bite


Break free! Oh, break free
From this thing called loneliness


Someone who's promises are worth everything has set you aside for greater deeds,
Just have faith, that's all it takes, because faith leads to other things

And lo, a lamp's been lit for you, it's just beyond that dismal shroud,
Have courage now, don't be afraid, stretch out your hand and take it out



But this thing called loneliness haunts you yet


Hold on, hold on, for now at least,
Wrestle with all that leaves you raw and sore,
Just be sure you win

And that thing called loneliness with haunt you never more.


Solitude, not just for hermits anymore.

    1. Huh, the lyrics do seem Broadwayish. I don't know if the melody will do the same or not.
