 Alone Ever Falling

Alone. 2 In a corner I sit and wait 10
For the rose that comes in silence. 8
A young girl with an empty glass stares. 9
The piano plays a gracious song. 8
She stands. I fall. No one looks. 7
No one else is even here to see... 9 (51)

I try to explain... 5     (my self) 7
I try to defend... 5      (my words) 7
Can't save myself from trying... 7
     (save myself from dying...) 6 (27) (78)
Alone. 2 Under the glass I run and wait 10
From the god that wants only love. 8
The young girl drinks from her empty glass, 9
Sounding as it touches her mouth. 8
She stands. I fall. No one looks. 7
No one else can ever save me now... 9 (51)

I try to demean... 5      (my self) 7
I try to redeem... 5      (my words) 7
Can't save myself from lying... 7
     (save myself from crying...) 6 (27) (156)
