All By Myself
by Tom Tognaci
I deal with the loneliness like combing fresh cut hair
I convince myself that Im alright
I can deal with the solitude, and the echo from upstairs
Now that the ghost is gone, Im alright
Id rather be alone and by myself
Than to be alone, while being with someone else
All by myself...stowed way up high on some dusty shelf
All by myself... Just me, an island, unto itself
Some nights I reminisce
Back and forth in this old chair
Is it worth the lament...is it really fair?
Black and blue is the emptiness, with a woman who cant care
One thing that stands out, now, completely clear
Id rather be alone and by myself
Than to be alone, while being with someone else
All by myself... stowed way up high on some dusty shelf
All by myself... Just me, an island, unto itself
Some nights I reminisce
Back and forth in this old chair
Is it worth the lament...is it really fair?
All I need is my poetry and the music that I play
To stretch these untamed wings and fly away
