Rezin - Alone

An empty room, and within in it an empty soul
And an, empty heart, and within that an empty hole
I'll grasp anything and everything to plant a seed and make it grow
Back to fullness so it can beat again and my heart can finally flow
But the soul is tired, and the heart is afraid
When it's released from its prison where will its bed be made
Death is knocking on every wall driving the mind insane
And work is taxing on the being making it the body's bane
How long can it drive? I can't stand so I must kneel
And hope the holy one above can hear the mouth's appeal
So alone, so many people but they don't seem real
Just ghosts in a fake world that ignores how we feel
The unprotected lonely soul will live empty till it dies
So, while it waits on the grim reaper, the mind envies other lives
It fails at being better every single time it tries
Teardrops echo off the empty walls as the body cries

I know it seems ridiculous a rich full life could feel like this
And I know I'm blessed, but I still feel like when I shoot I miss
Though I should have hope I'm seeing demons in my home
Will I really live forever? Or eternally alone
Or be eternally alone

Now the bodies groaning as the demons get inside
The room is no longer empty, fear and doubt collide
Made it so uncertain, my Lord God has He lied?
That hole in my heart is where evil now resides
I wait upon the Lord, but my strength is not rising
And I seek his gentle touch but there's no comfort for my crying
I'll never make it in this world so what's the point of trying
Every blow to my faith it makes me feel like I'm dying
The rock my house is built upon is shaken
When will the mighty power of my God awaken
It's like we enjoy pretending life is fine when its eating us alive
We would rather just get by when we know that we could thrive
Honesty will bring you pain cause no one wants to know
The real pain that's in the roots that stunts the spirit's growth
We allow our churches to fall apart because grief is just to messy
Then when we have problems we where is God's blessing

Life is not a trip to summer camp it's a war zone
You fight until the day you die and then you get to go home
We aren't speaking to the truth, were preaching to desire
It's no wonder people leave us when it gets down to the wire
Populating hell with lonely souls that never felt love
Yeah we preach it on a Sunday but forget it when Monday come
I thought I could trust the ones I love with the deepness of my feeling
But pain from their responses has often left me reeling
You can share to some extent but not the entire truth
Don't wanna make people think they should feel sorry for you
The soul paints on a smile and pretends to feel the strength
When inside the nerves are frayed, the heart stretched to its full length
Ignore the agony in eyes that have food upon their tables
If they say that it's a hard time, they must be telling fables
I feel like we robots, got smiles pulled with cables
So when the body feels moved, it tries to stand but it's not able
