I stand here alone again
Atop this lonely ridge
Unable to even fake a grin
Wishing for nothing but a bridge

A bridge to connect the good and bad
A bridge to stop the pain
A bridge to help me forget the troubles I had
And show me everything I have to gain

I've made many choices in my past
Of which all but one I hate
They feed me regret that will forever last
But alas they were my fate

Alone atop this sullen hill
I sit alone and wait
I wonder how long it shall be
Until I see the glorious gate

The gate to my new life
The answer to my crys
The one I dream of every night
That so far has been nothing but lies

These lies are false hope
Of dreams and rebirth
The only ways I can cope
With my life burning in the hearth

I sit here burning in this mantle
Wishing no pity from this lot
I only wish for a single candle
To bring some light to my lonely spot

It's difficult to face the darkness
When you're alone in the night
You never fell a moment of bliss
When you have no moon to give you light

There have been people in my past
Who shed upon me light
They brought me joy I hoped would always last
But all ended in dreadful spite

So what I need in my life
Is someone for me to love
To show me a part of life without strife
Someone to be my lovely dove

But for me to love them is not enough
They must love me as well
But since people believe me to be rough
I'm not likely to find her before I reach hell

So if my mighty god exists
Then to gain my favor again he must know
Something, Someone is all I wish
To bring back my compassionate glow.
