Lonely Life from Looking Alive by Brian Wheat

A long time has passed since I’ve been awake
You hurt the same no matter what time of day
When you’re living cold and the sun’s tucked away

They say hold on to all that is gold
But, I’m hung up here on the eastern coast
I’ve never been a miner, but it’s in my blood

And so is hard thought and pining for another life
But I kept my guard, somehow they crept into mine
And now I’m here at last
In this lonely life

The storm won’t calm itself
No, it needs all kinds of help
Or it just rolls on, and on
Until you’re here at last
In this lonely life

I’ve known some girls, but never long enough for them to break my heart
And so, I do my share so much it feels like it’s become an art
And I’m starving here
It’s just like me to find me a love that’s somewhere out of reach
I thought I swore all that off but it makes it easier
On us both

The storm won’t calm itself
No, it needs all kinds of help
Or it just rolls on, and on
Until you’re here at last
In this lonely life
Once more you’re here at last
In this lonely life
