Alone

Gave to Dave Richie for a song



Alone

You may be in a relationship but very much alone.
You may be offered some support but always on your own.
Wondering why you feel so ill with everything thats fraught.
You go to bed so early with nothing but your thoughts.

Fed up with constant battles and the point youre trying to make.
Tired of trying to prove youre right till your heart begins to ache.
Doing everything yourself and unable to communicate
And even problems that are simple it leaves you in a state.

You ask the same old question and to the depth of your soul
Wonder why you are here to act out the same old role.
Struggling once more and yet time and time again
Its déjà vu and the answer to you is like a closed chain.


Once in a blue moon you need the benefit of the doubt
Instead of keep arguing, repeating, going over and to shout!
So exhausted youve become almost to the point of no return,
To ask for a little understanding but once again you’re spurned.



Chorus: Rejected dejected just want to be respected,
     Want your strong shoulders and need to be protected.

You want a magic wand to wave and to cast a spell
Go back to the time when you both got on so well
All you want to do now is hide right in your shell
Now how it feels when we argue, you want me to go to hell

You try to help and aide all the minor problems that you get
But always feel rejected and just get more and more upset.
It isnt worth the time youve taken to try and work things through
Nobodys dying, its just me crying and its all because of you.
