Living Alone

Lyrics:

© marocon
Good morning beautiful... I want to say

The sun steals through the windows Nudges me awake
It doesn't seep inside of me Where only darkness lies in wait
I remember reaching for you in the dead of night
My arms fell on emptiness where you used to lie

Refrain

Darling I grow anxious fearing I'll forget your face
That our days together are soon to be erased
It was not your intention to leave me on my own
But here I am living all alone

The world's been drained of colour and the food's it has no taste
I used to rush around now I don't know why my haste
My family are so worried oh what will come of me
But the currents of their lives have moved them further down the stream

Refrain

I rummage through your clothes seeking out your scent
I spread out all the photos and wallow in lament
And when I'm finally cried out the tears they sprout again
Till the moon asks with baleful eye how my day was spent

Refrain

My friends have all stopped calling and asking if I've eaten
I'm tied to the mast of grief where I'm lashed and I am beaten
You've got to pick yourself up you've got to carry on
But bromides won't get you far when a day is decades long

Darling I grow anxious fearing I'll forget your face
That our days together are soon to be erased
It was not your intention to leave me on my own
But here I am living all alone
