he walks alone, down a lonely road
with walls around his heart, darkness was bestowed
to keep pushing them away, to never let them stay
from the hurt that comes with love, he's found a way
all along the loneliness, he stands guard
with his numbed heart, that has been beaten and scarred
he'll never let love in, he'll never take the chance
all along the loneliness, he's in a trance
he's built his fortress, to keep out the pain
'cause inside he's dying, from the love he feigns
he's lost in his own world, a prisoner of his mind
but the truth is, he's just too afraid to find
all along the loneliness, he stands guard
with his numbed heart, that has been beaten and scarred
he'll never let love in, he'll never take the chance
all along the loneliness, he's in a trance
he'll live his life, in a permanent state
of emptiness and fear, it's his own fate
but deep down he knows, love is worth the risk
all along the loneliness, he'll continue to exist.
