I’M NOT THIS LONELY (BUT I’M TRYING!)
VERSE1
I came into this world with the slap of a hand.
I was caressed for twenty years by a woman and a man –
But now I’m free.
You can see it in my eyes, but I want to let you know,
That I see through my disguise and it’s time for me to go –
Because I’m free.
CHORUS1
I’m not this lonely – But I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely – But I’m crying.
And I don’t know what happiness means?
So, I’ll just pour another dream.
VERSE2
I’m through holding on to everything I never had before.
It’s like staring in a mirror and then crying out for more –
But now I’m free.
And I wonder if the distance that I put between myself
Makes me stronger in the long run
Am I lying to myself? –
Because I’m free.
CHORUS2
I’m not this lonely – But I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely – But I’m crying.
And I don’t know what happiness means,
So, I’ll just pour another dream.
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
VERSE3
There are those who walk together, there are those who run instead.
I am neither, I’m not better, ‘cuz I live inside my head –
That’s why I’m free!
I try not to change my world, I never tear myself apart.
I feel with my eyes and I see with my heart –
I’m free.
CHORUS3
I’m not this lonely – But I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely – But I’m crying.
And I don’t know what happiness means,
So, I’ll just pour another dream.
I’m not this lonely but I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely but I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely but I’m trying.
I’m not this lonely but I’m trying.
(Repeat until fade out.) |
