Just Alone Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
And she said, my heart's cold, or I would've shone brighter
But the spark's gone, and my star stone won't light up
I might've just walked home, but the dark road
Just as charcoal as souls of those gone by us
I'm so biased in my position, I don't buy it
I'm alone, minutes from solo missions to float higher
If I don't get it, I won't miss it
An old lie which adults hide, my own vision's with no iris
Both eyelids open, hoping that this time is different
Wishing that this is the moment I've been trying to witness
Which is the closest? Admit I'm broken? It's fine
I'm feeling infinite notions and been afloat in this pond of
Being alone, it'll be too cold to respond
But I'm heated by those dreams when I seem to have broken bonds
With people I leave, never greet me with open arms
I'm seeking more in my palm than simply rope and a charm

[Chorus]
The passion, the silence, the rapping, the violin
The ashes, the violence, the clash of the sirens
Imagine a time from the past that's behind us
It's tragic, I'm past it, but ask, I'll respond with
I'm not lonely, I'm just alone
They say I'm trapped in my mind
You don't know me, I'm just at home
Finding peace in the prospect
Of looking myself in the mirror when I speak to respond with
I'm not lonely, I'm just alone
They say I'm trapped in my mind
You don't know me, I'm just at home
Deeper thoughts every time, just another night
Music in my heart, and it goes a little something like
Uh-huh, yeah yeah
There's a reason I was made this way
I'll ask God when I get to see Him face to face
[Verse 2]
I be soul searchin', workin', finding my sole purpose
Learning my goal's distant, I sprint til my soles hurtin'
Perfect is no person, I promise zero percent
No matter the actor we all gotta close curtains
I've given up just enough to complain
Feeling cold to the touch, but I'm numb to the pain
And that's only the start, think it's dumb that I'm prayin'
But I've come far distrusting my heart and the brain
I find peace in silence
Though beats and rhymin' beat solace
Modestly like we promised
To be honest, feeling indifferent to the chatter
Wonder if it matters, slip from the ladder or keep climbin'
Be conscious, this is forcibly handwritten
Might pass it as forgery 'cause of course we don't have feelings
Imagine the past, passed courses in class sitting
I've been here before, metaphor for the track's ending, like

[Chorus]
The passion, the silence, the rapping, the violin
The ashes, the violence, the clash of the sirens
Imagine a time from the past that's behind us
It's tragic, I'm past it, but ask, I'll respond with
I'm not lonely, I'm just alone
They say I'm trapped in my mind
You don't know me, I'm just at home
Finding peace in the prospect
Of looking myself in the mirror when I speak to respond with
I'm not lonely, I'm just alone
They say I'm trapped in my mind
You don't know me, I'm just at home
Deeper thoughts every time, just another night
Music in my heart, and it goes a little something like
Uh-huh, yeah yeah
There's a reason I was made this way
I'll ask God when I get to see Him face to face
[Outro]
And if you should ever fall and need light to guide you
Remember who you are and who's right beside you
'Cause even from afar the moonlight's designed to
Illuminate us all, right then I'll find you
