As the sun went down and came up again I stared at the horizon and tried to forget my pain How I wish there someone To hold me by the hand Yet I was as lonely as the desert and its billowing sands Solitude can be a bliss And yet sometimes I desire a friend I crave love and affection But somehow I always get stuck with a friend Oh lies lies! Its all lies! There no exists a pure soul Its fails and tries! Fails and tries! Yet all there exist are damned ghouls Who should I go to? To whom do I cry? Who should I live for? And for whom should I die? Just give me friend! Someone to hug! I have had enough of heartless thugs! Is it too much to ask for a hug? I am falling into an abyss of crisis! Oh please tell me you old sorcerer in the sky! Is this so that its you I miss? I spent decades in the wait for your reply So now I accept And give up the trying with a sigh So menacing I could hear my thoughts Was the intense silence That I got used to And tried to live happily hence I have somewhat found content in my mind Though in my imaginary friends The right comfort IZ couldn’t find I try to always be there for people that need support I try to give as much affection As I need their support
