Gabe Florsheim - Alone

I just want to find an oasis in the desert.
I just want to see a spark in the darkness.
I just want to get my breath in the asphyxiating gas.

I just want to be myself.

But how can I?
Everywhere I go,
I find it is deformed.
Maybe I have to be a lonely singer.
Let the rain beat like drums and echo my tears.
Let the world fall apart beneath me.

And if it is doomed,
I have no choice.
I will sing alone
Untill i leave this world

And this world leaves me.

Gabe Florsheim
