The Bitter Man

I am alone

I am alone; this bitter man that I've become
Hold my breath, laid to rest
Drown in my tears; there's nothing left of me
I am alone; the angry man upon his throne
I can't pretend, the great descent
Take my hand until the end

You see me on the horizon, I am the air you breathe
I sold my soul to the seven seas
Condemned and lost, pulled off course
I will never leave; I'm always yours

Each time I stand ashore
With sand between my toes
I remember and I know I am alone

I am alone; this bitter man that I've become
Hold my breath, laid to rest
Drown in my tears; there's nothing left of me
I am alone; the angry man upon his throne
I can't pretend, the great descent
Take my hand until the end

The water will wash away my pain and sorrows
A stranger in the night who blindly follows, who follows
This is the path I choose and this is the place I die (I die)
When heaven rests itself upon the earth
I'm one step closer to the sky

To the one I loved, now lost
To the one I sheltered from the rain that turned to frost
To the sunken feeling when I saw your face
I will perish in never ending disgrace

You are the sea, I am the shore
I will never leave; I'm always yours

Each time I stand ashore
With sand between my toes
I remember and I know I am alone

I am alone; this bitter man that I've become
Hold my breath, laid to rest
Drown in my tears; there's nothing left of me
I am alone; the angry man upon his throne
I can't pretend, the great descent
Take my hand until the end

There is a world inside me
It lives; it hurts; it barely breathes
I cast my heart into the sea
If it means it brings you closer to me
