The Bites of Loneliness

The Bites of Loneliness

A: Verse 1 :

Like first time I glance at these pictures of you

Rising in me feelings that I never knew

I wonder why it had to end and why we're through

When everything recalls the times when we were two

A: Verse 2:

I take a step forward to open the windows wide

Wish the summer sun relight the fire in me

I can see songbirds as kept in a cage of glass

Humming melodies that I just cannot hear

Chorus:

This silent room echoes me back

All the vacuum of my lonely heart

When you're not here I'm defeated

By the emptiness

I don't know where the joy is gone

Nor the courage, or the strength to hope

The only certainty I have is this

Rinsing pain in me

The bites of loneliness

B: Verse 1

Like last time I'd glance I these pictures of you

Hold them close to feel again the sweet of you

I still cannot get why we are through

My heart did learn nothing but dream of you

B: Verse 2

I take a step backward when I come to realize

The birds were singing aloud and flying free

Someone (who that?) were still kept in a cage of glass

That someone were no one else but me

Chorus:

This silent room echoes me back

All the vacuum of my lonely heart

When you're not here I'm defeated

By the emptiness

I don't know where the joy is gone

Nor the courage, or the strength to hope

The only certainty I have is this

Rinsing pain in me

The bites of loneliness

Bridge:

The bites of loneliness

Are hurting me

So silently

The bites of loneliness

Are killing me

Deep inside of me

Chorus:

This silent room echoes me back

All the vacuum of my lonely heart

When you're not here I'm defeated

By the emptiness

I don't know where the joy is gone

Nor the courage, or the strength to hope

The only certainty I have is this

Rinsing pain in me

The bites of loneliness
