Solitude

But by myself I sit alone, here we go
I'm wondering about a love poem
I can't express the way that I feel in words
I start to write when I'm all alone

Wow, we say

I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
I can't say that I can keep below a shout
I can't say that I want what I'm writing about
I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
Oh, that's right, here we go

But let my body turns to stone
Here we go, here we go
I start to peel my brain right to the bone
I'm trying to bring justice to my thoughts
Well, I'm trying just to let my mind reign

Wow, we say

I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
I can't say that I can keep below a shout
I can't say that I want what I'm writing about
I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
Well, that's right, here we go

Now, I can't feel a fucking thing
Well, then I ask myself, why should I sing?
I'm trying to bring justice to my thoughts
And I'm trying just to let my fucking mind reign

Wow, we say

I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
I can't say that I can keep below a shout
I can't say that I want what I'm writing about
I can't say that I know what I'm talking about
Oh, that's right, here we go
