Joe Jung: Music
When You're Alone
You’re standing on a mighty wall Your friends are near to watch you fall And lead you through the dark path before you Quickly they all fade away I guess they’re not the ones to blame But things are different when you’re alone Light shines through a sun-drenched hall Soon the light will surely fall As it has from time begun before me Clocks have flown the days from here Months and years have disappeared ‘Cause things are different when you’re alone Sitting in the moonlit night No use turning up the light Emptiness can take you like a thief can steal your food Always was someone to hold you Always was someone to push you But things are different when you’re alone Now you have sat upon your rock Waiting for the ache to stop Like Jesus in his midnight garden praying for his life How much can you take this longer You never seem to get much stronger ‘Cause things are different when you’re alone Faces laugh and people sing You’re in love with everything The world is on your shoulders And the floor is filled with nails Wait now for your life to start Prepare your soul and feed your heart ‘Cause things are different when you’re alone
