But, Here I Stand. Alone.

You said you'd never leave. But, here I stand. Alone. When you're across the line.

I never thought I'd run solo. But, here I stand. Alone. Why is no one by my side?

You said your love would never did. But, here I stand. Alone. Where there's nothing left but hate.

I never knew the world could be so dark. But, here I stand. Alone. What else will only force me down?

You said we'd always be. But, here I stand. Alone. Who else is there to fear?

I never wanted this. But, here I stand. Alone. No who, what, where, when, or why will ever change that.
