On My Own
Sorrow visits me on a cold, winter night
 When snow falls down from the sky
 Sadness trails on a harsh, rainy day
 When the Earth along with me starts to cry
 
 I weep my tears and wipe my eyes
 I know I'm supposed to be strong
 But I feel there's something wrong...
 In my heart
 
 I now know it's sorrow
 But where is it springing from?
 My heart, I suppose
 But from where do the memories come?
 
 Sorrow is what it is 
 My head spins
 A heavy feeling weighs in my heart
 A cloud of sorrow storms above my head
 Raindrops start to fall
 
 The dark clouds hide the tears
 That stream down my cheeks
 The boom of thunder covers the cries
 That burst within electric lightning 
 
 Inside of me
 My heart starts to break
 Yet it beats so fast
 My lungs thinning
 I search for air that might be within my grasp
 
 I fall to the ground
 My knees make a soft thud
 My hands on the wet muck below
 
 My clothes are drenched
 My skin is clean
 My eyes have wept
 
 
 But still, I don't feel complete
