Alone
A candle flickers in the hallway A figure creeps up the stairs A floorboard creeks on the landing The lights go out in pairs A young girl alone in the bedroom A dagger to her throat Her final words "I love you" As her mind begins to float A lonely son at a graveyard Weeping at their graves His final words "I love you" As he retreats to the caves An old man alone in an alley Lost in his final hours His final words "I love you" Then his body surrounded by flowers Alone and drifting forever No hope
