Lonely Cry

(album: New Skin - 2016)

In my hands, I'm holding all in the fire and it hurts
In my heart, I'm bleeding in the silence afterwards
In my mind, maybe this time I'll have the strength to leave him
But in my chest, a feeling like I'm still believing

That I need him, I need him
Like I need a mirror when I'm falling
It's deceiving
Distorting my thinking
Don't know if I'm dreaming

Don't you realize
When you look at me
I hear the lonely cry
Looking at your eyes
I live in hope that they'll come alive
I'm your longest shadow
I know wherever you go, I go
I'm on the outside
Like a lonely cry

He's in my blood, I'm grieving
For the life I left behind
And in my sleep, I'm needing
To escape this heart and mind
In my life I'll pay the price
To be a fool for his love
And from my mouth, I'm feeding
On the trail of his lies

I need him, I need him
Like I need a mirror when I'm falling
It's deceiving
Makes me give in
So don't wake me if I'm dreaming

Don't you realize
When you look at me
I hear the lonely cry
Looking at your eyes
I live in hope that they'll come alive
I'm your longest shadow
I know wherever you go, I go
I'm on the outside
Like a lonely cry

Look back and I don't know
I don't know right from wrong
No matter where you go
I'll be coming along
'Cause in my heart, in my mind
In my chest, I feel it
I'm everywhere you go

Don't you realize
When you look at me
I hear the lonely cry
Looking at your eyes
I live in hope that they'll come alive
I'm your longest shadow
I know wherever you go, I go
I'm on the outside
Like a lonely cry

Like a lonely cry
Like a lonely cry
Like a lonely cry
