ALSTUDIO - Solitude

Eyes so wet, can't help but weep
Why did she leave, these scars so deep
I can't let go
Solitude's a simple term
So it seems
But her goodbye's a lasting burn

Through my mind, her shadow creeps
In my heart, her memory leaps
I'm still holding on, holding on
In the echo of her footsteps as they fade
Lie the broken promises we made

Why she left, the answers flee
My heart's in chains but she's free
Lost in the silence, in the sorrow's flow
Cry, oh why, did she have to go?
Tears fall down, like endless rain
Can't erase, can't ease this pain

I'm still reaching out, through the shadow's doubt
Wondering what I've missed,
But it's her voice I hear, so close but never near
Lost in the storm, since the day she was gone

I wander through these empty rooms, where laughter used to soar
Now dust just settles silently, can't feel her warmth no more
Yet in the quiet air I sense, traces of her perfume
A haunting reminder she's not here, wrapped up in this cocoon
In the stillness of the night, her shadow's all I see
The coldness of her absence, the void where she should be

Cry, why did she have to go?
Left a hole in my heart, a love I can't outgrow
I reach for her in the night, but it's the wind that I hold
In the silence where we danced, it's her absence that's bold
Guitar strings weep like the rain on my skin
Each note a memory, sinking deeper within
