ALONE TEARS

If you fall, I will catch you.
If you fall, believe in me.
If you fall, I will carry you,
If you fall, do not fear.

I believed them, I trusted them,
Their words had me sold.
And when I fell, they laughed,
Harsh voices cold.

Again I trusted, again I fell,
Again the stones broke me.
Again the laughter rang clear,
Trust demanding its fee.

Perhaps in another lifetime,
I will be caught,
Perhaps in another world,
My heart will be sought.

But here, I cannot love,
Here I cannot trust.
My fate is to be alone,
Scar and bleed I must.

Always I will hurt alone,
Alone I will walk.
And I will cry alone,
Alone I will talk.

So no, I will not trust,
I will not be caught,
No, I will not fall,
They will remember - I fought.

I am the Lone Wolf,
The Shadow I seem,
I give others the hopes,
Of which I no longer dream
