Solitude Means No Harm

Looking for diversions and I'm running out
Floating in the deep end
And drifting through the night

Stuck in pointless entertainment's roundabout
Attracted like an insect
To these alluring lights

All we want is to feel better
All we do is run for shelter
Where our hopes are disregarded
And our reveries discarded

And their mother tongue is slander
And they're good at propaganda
All they talk about is tinsel
I can see them through my window

Their mood palette shows a vapid monochrome
They've set their inspirations
To lifeless metronomes

You can shut the curtains and ignore it all
Bask in commiserations
Forget that you're alone

Do you dream about another
And the days you miss your mother
Do you turn towards the idols
When you find it hard to handle?

You go out on every weekend
As a way to shun the feeling
Sabotaging your intentions
It's no cause for celebration

All we want is to feel better
All we do is run for shelter
Where our hopes are disregarded
And our reveries discarded

And the roulette wheel stopped spinning
And you've got no chance of winning
Cause you're scared to miss the trademark
And you might be lonely
But solitude means no harm
