I like the silence of my room A cup of tea, a fading Moon Books and thoughts, my favorite friends No need for crowds that just pretend But some nights, when the world is still A whisper creeps, against my will It says: You're strong, but something's missing A heart to hear, a soul for listening I like being alone But I don't want to feel lonely I've built my walls up high But they crumble slowly Wish I could trust, wish I could fall But I've seen love turn cold to all So I stay in my zone Alone, but not lonely People lie with sugar smiles They promise peace, then leave you trials I've watched too many stories break Too many hearts too much to take But I still dream of someone true Who sees my storm and walks on through Who doesn't try to fix or change me But understands and still would stay I like being alone But I don't want to feel lonely I've built my walls up high But they crumble slowly Wish I could trust, wish I could fall But I've seen love turn cold to all So I stay in my zone Alone, but not lonely Maybe someday, when I'm not afraid I'll open the door that I once barricaded Till then, I write songs in the dark Hoping someone might hear my heart I like being alone But I don't want to feel lonely Not asking for forever Just someone to hold me Wish I could trust, wish I could fall But I've seen love ruin it all So I sing on my own Alone, but not lonely
