Scared of Lonely

I'm in this fight and I'm swinging and my arms are getting tired

I'm trying to beat this emptiness, but I'm running out of time

I'm sinking in the sand and I can barely stand

I'm lost in this dream; I need you to hold me

I'm scared of lonely

I try to be patient, but I'm hurting deep inside

And I can't keep waiting; I need comfort late at night

And I can't find my way; won't you lead me home?

'Cause I'm lost in this dream; I need you to hold me

[Chorus]

I'm scared of lonely

And I'm scared of being the only shadow I see along the wall

And I'm scared the only heartbeat I hear beating is my own

And I'm scared of being alone

I can't seem to breathe when I am

Lost in this dream; I need you to hold me

I'm scared of lonely

I'm scared of lonely

I cry at night 'cause my baby's too far to be by my side

To wipe away these tears of mine, so I hold my pillow tight

To imagine you would stretch your hand looking for mine

'Cause I'm lost in this dream; I need you to hold me

[Chorus]

I need your strength when nobody's around

'Cause I'm tired of this emptiness; I think I'm drowning

I can't be lonely no more

'Cause I'm lost in this dream; I need you to hold me

[Chorus: x2]

I'm scared of lonely

I'm scared of lonely
