about

----------

This is a song I wrote in February 2022 during February Album writing Month (fawm.org). It's a song about loneliness and alienation, about feeling alone in a city full of people.

Lyrics

Watching the faded smiles
See these actors walking asleep
Like lifeboats stranded on the ocean
Floating alone

But down here in the dark
In this theatre of the cold and alone
No more hidden scars
Step out of the wings
Into the unknown

Look in my eyes
See how they shine bright
Watching our dreams take flight
As we sparkle and shine

Searching these darkened streets
For some trace of meaning
Lifeboats on the ocean
Tracing footsteps back home

But down here in the dark
In this theatre of the cold and alone
No more hidden scars
Step out of the wings
Into the unknown

Look in my eyes
See how they shine bright
Watching our dreams take flight
As we sparkle and shine
