The Only One Awake
I’ll stay in this trance,
Where the music’s a dance
Where it’s dark outside
In the dead of night.
And the only sound
Is rain on the ground
And the only person
Awake is me
The world sleeps
And I listen
To the sound of the wind
Watch the treetops glisten
In a land drenched in water
And a heart soaked in brine
The world inside this room is mine
The world is your oyster is what they say
But I think I prefer it this way
Just me and the sound
Of rain on the ground,
The smell of the forest
Weaving around
The comfort of knowing
I’m the only one here
The only one awake.
