Alone In The Pack

            Inspiration: everyone and thing
            Thursday April 30, 1998

Time drifts and I die
The World is reborn and still I die
All around me I see life
Within me all there is is strife

What love is there to be mine
What day will bring the shine
The Day without birth?
The smile without mirth.

Running alone in a pack
Without companions, without tracks
What is it like for the souring eagle?
What is it like to have a life so full?

The Cave screams with un uttered thoughts
The Mountain tops I have sought
But the shadows have devoured me
With the sights of dreams never to be.

I yell into the night
I am losing ground in this fight
Eagle's Sour Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door

In the Mirror I see
Pain staring back at me
No tears, no fears
Just the silence haunting me through the years

I bleed, I need
It will not come to me,
I yell into the night
Help me finish this fight,
Eagle's sour, Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door.

All alone I look up to the stars
So free, yet locked behind bars
To see and still not be free
Loneliness is all I see in me

I dream and lose everything
Everything I never had and am always missing
How long can I last alone
How long until I am pierced through the heart, flesh, and bone

I bleed, I need
Why won't it come to me,
I yell into the night
Help me finish this fight,
Eagle's sour, Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door.

I scream into the night
For love I will fight to catch but a sight.
No one to ever call my own
Only my soul being stoned

Help me understand
Why the world my sorrow demands
Why I am always in pain
Why others always gain

I bleed, I need
Why won't it come to me,
I yell into the night
Help me finish this fight,
Eagle's sour, Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door.

When will it end
When will the world let me defend
My life to regain
To pull from the pouring rain

When will it be
That I can love someone and they can love me?
When will my dreams be reality?
When will my heart feel freely?

I bleed, I need
Why won't it come to me,
I yell into the night
Help me finish this fight,
Eagle's sour, Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door.

Blood runs
My feelings of the heart all shuns
Why do I see the couples in the night
While I am all alone in the moonlight.

I bleed, I need
Why won't it come to me,
I yell into the night
Help me finish this fight,
Eagle's sour, Lion's roar
My heart is trapped outside the door.

I see couple's in the night,
While I am forever alone in the moonlight.
