Analysis of I Am Alone



I Am Alone

In my mind and in my heart I know
that I'm destined to be alone for I
walk in the shadows of my formal self,
I Am Alone

No matter how hard I try to escape
these memories they rush back to my soul
and sit there forever haunting me,
I Am Alone

As I walk in the shadows of wat was my
life I see how happy I once was but know
the happiness is gone and all thats left is my self,
I Am Alone

No one can save me I'm already gone all
thats left of me is my shadow for I walk alone
into darkness forever,
I Am Alone
