All the lonely places

I keep seeking in my sleep

wash away the shame

in soft and shadows

But as the shame rolls back

it carries a hurricane

All the lonely places

I keep hiding my old sighs

give me a heavy load to carry

and I swallow my shame again

But as the shame rolls back

it carries a wall of fire

What’s wrong with me and

what’s wrong with me and

how has this burning city not eaten me alive

Treat me like a prisoner, cast away

and your coat goes up in flames

But I’m buried in all the lonely places

I’ll hide away till the tidal wave’s gone
