cellphone

I wake up in the silence, the shadows in my room
Thought I'd find a way to fill this heart with blooms
But every day's a struggle, each moment's just a test
I'm better off all by myself, I gotta find some rest
Though I'm feeling kinda empty without somebody else
I learned to stand alone, I put my heart on the shelf
Oh, I hear you crying out for help
But you never showed for me when I was ringing your cellphone
Oh, you don't know how it feels to be alone
Tried to be your lifeline, but you let me fall
Chasing shadows of your laughter, now I'm just a ghost in the hall
You had your chance to hold me, you left me out in the cold
But I've got strength in my silence; I'll paint my world in gold

Though I'm feeling kinda empty without somebody else
I learned to stand alone, I put my heart on the shelf
Oh, I hear you crying out for help
But you never showed for me when I was ringing your cellphone
Oh, you don't know how it feels to be alone

So many nights I waited, looking out for a sign
But the stars were just reminders of a love that never shined
I picked up all the pieces, I'm stronger than before
I'm dancing with my shadows, and I'm ready to explore

Though I'm feeling kinda empty without somebody else
I learned to stand alone, I put my heart on the shelf
Oh, I hear you crying out for help
But you never showed for me when I was ringing your cellphone
Oh, you don't know how it feels to be alone

I'm better off all by myself, it's time to find my way
I'm done with all the heartache, I'm stepping into the day
So if you're looking for me, I'll be where the wild winds blow
You'll never know the strength I've found when I let you go
