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.
