Only one who Waits

Son of man,
You’re on your own.
The coming winter,
You’ll face alone.

The heart that you cherished so,
The hand that you tried to hold.
Belong to a stranger,
But a vision you crafted.

Alone, alone you came into this world,
Came into being.
Alone, alone you are still when you’re leaving,
When you’re waning.

Hounds of winter,
Bay at the moors.
Demons of loneliness,
Bide at your door now.

Not one heart that would stay true,
Not one soul that bleeds for you.
They’ll turn away,
One dreary day.

Alone, alone you came into this world,
Came into being.
Alone, alone you are still when you’re leaving,
When you’re waning.

Alone (Alone!), alone you came into this world (This world!),
Came into being (Being!).
Alone (Alone!), alone you are still when you’re leaving (When you’re leaving!),
When you’re waning.

Alone you’re in this world,
In the middle of it all.
If you keep holding on,
It will hurt even more.

Only one who stays,
Only one who waits.
Your shadow by your side,
Only friend in life.
