When you're alone
There is no one to pull you under
When you're alone
There is no one to break your fall
When there is nothing
Left for them to plunder

They leave without a whisper
They leave without a glance
Because you have nothing
In your hands
To make them want to glance your way

When you're alone
There is no one to keep you caged in
When you're alone 
There is no one to keep you warm
And if you try
To keep all of the rage in

It breeds a world of anger
It breeds a world of pain
Till you surrender
Half insane
Half wishing you could start again

I've seen the mortal danger
I've seen it hide away
It's very treasure, just in case
And no one ever looked your way

I've seen the mortal danger
It breathes, it is my friend 
It is my saviour, my mistake
The one thing I refuse to fake
