To tow solitude deep in the heartTo tow solitude deep in the heart

Always living in a world of loneliness nobody viewsAlways living in a world of loneliness nobody views

Every time these worlds are coming in contactEvery time these worlds are coming in contact

I feel it withinI feel it within

Oh, I'm grasping it nowOh, I'm grasping it now

Oh, I'm remembering nowOh, I'm remembering now


In our childhood memory lane, way back in timeIn our childhood memory lane, way back in time

When protected by pure innocence at its primeWhen protected by pure innocence at its prime

The names we called each other or the promises of days to comeThe names we called each other or the promises of days to come

It was enough for us to think about the world as being as oneIt was enough for us to think about the world as being as one


The things we cannot understandThe things we cannot understand

And the things we cannot overlook are nowAnd the things we cannot overlook are now

Increasing, one, two, still piling upIncreasing, one, two, still piling up

Every single time it happenedEvery single time it happened

I even gave up on hoping we could ever reach mutual trustI even gave up on hoping we could ever reach mutual trust

Just forgot about thatJust forgot about that


To tow solitude deep in the heartTo tow solitude deep in the heart

Separated and each living in a world nobody viewsSeparated and each living in a world nobody views

When I think we got so close to each otherWhen I think we got so close to each other

But we're drifting apartBut we're drifting apart

And, every time, as it restartsAnd, every time, as it restarts

I realize it is so lonely in my heartI realize it is so lonely in my heart

I cannot, oh, we cannotI cannot, oh, we cannot

Ever stop looking for someone else, again and againEver stop looking for someone else, again and again

It's because inside we're still not mature enoughIt's because inside we're still not mature enough

To deal with the fact that we could still be all aloneTo deal with the fact that we could still be all alone

With loneliness, we'd carry onWith loneliness, we'd carry on


The pasted scenes set at the back of our classThe pasted scenes set at the back of our class

They show us the different hues in sightThey show us the different hues in sight

Looking at the same sceneriesLooking at the same sceneries

Each one of us drew something newEach one of us drew something new

And we all have a different viewAnd we all have a different view

And they will never overlapAnd they will never overlap

Although they look alike, they never willAlthough they look alike, they never will


Well, if you judge everybody with the ideal image in your mindWell, if you judge everybody with the ideal image in your mind

Measuring the distance from itMeasuring the distance from it

Imitating love for your inner greedImitating love for your inner greed

And chasing fantasies of something unrealAnd chasing fantasies of something unreal

But every time I'm checking, it grows unpleasantBut every time I'm checking, it grows unpleasant

And every time I'm longing, it's selfish intentAnd every time I'm longing, it's selfish intent

And each time I lost it, I became a cowardAnd each time I lost it, I became a coward


I don't wish for more than nowI don't wish for more than now

Everything is good as it isEverything is good as it is

So please, I want you to staySo please, I want you to stay

Don't want you to go awayDon't want you to go away

Maintaining our distances vague, as everything remains undefinedMaintaining our distances vague, as everything remains undefined

I believed it was how we grow and turn into a grown-upI believed it was how we grow and turn into a grown-up


Here I am, here I amHere I am, here I am

Always running away because I'm afraid of being hurtAlways running away because I'm afraid of being hurt

The truth is, deep inside within me, hope abidesThe truth is, deep inside within me, hope abides

Still want to believe nowStill want to believe now
