Lonely

Lonely is not in your head

It’s in your gut

If you’ve felt it you know

When the feeling in your stomach

Makes you double over

That’s loneliness

When the feeling in your stomach

Makes you cry in pain

That’s loneliness

If you are merely alone

If you are missing someone you will go back to

If there is light at the end of the tunnel

That is merely being alone

No, Lonely is hopeless

Lonely means you will sleep alone tonight

And the next night

And sleep is your only relief

Playing With Fire
