How sad to be a victim of ones own self deception
Mistaking love where only a kind smile and gentle heart reside
Forgive my presumption, my naïve and wanting ways
Such is the way of a heart living in loneliness
Discarding reality at the cost of hope
Silently I take my leave
Slipping back into the sanctuary of the shadows

Safe from the needs of my heart
Condemned to dreaming that which can not be
Knowing that this is where I belong
Far from the pain of love’s bittersweet song
Alone to live within myself
