Solitude Standing
Embracing Shadows: Unraveling the Enigmatic Tale of Solitude Standing
Lyrics
Solitude stands by the window
Solitude is positioned by the window
She turns her head as I walk in the room
As I enter the room, Solitude turns her head
I can see by her eyes she's been waiting
Observing her eyes, it's evident she has been waiting
Standing in the slant of the late afternoon
She stands in the slant of the late afternoon
And she turns to me with her hand extended
Turning towards me, she extends her hand
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
Her palm bears a split with a flower and a flame
Solitude stands in the doorway
Solitude now stands in the doorway
And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
Struck by her black silhouette once again
By her long cool stare and her silence
Her long cool stare and silence are noticeable
I suddenly remember each time we've met
Recollection of each past meeting suddenly hits me
And she turns to me with her hand extended
She turns to me, hand extended, palm split with a flower and flame
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
She claims to have come to correct a twisted situation
And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
Her purpose is to lighten a darkened heart
And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
Grabbing my wrist, I sense her imprint of fear
And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"
I express surprise at finding her in this place
I turn to the crowd as they're watching
Turning to the crowd, all sitting in the dark
They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
They are gathered together, and it's warm
I wanted to be in there among them
I desired to be among them
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
Noticing their eyes united into one
And then she turns to me with her hand extended
She turns to me again, hand extended, palm split with a flower and flame
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
Reiterating her purpose to set things straight
And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
Repeating the intention to lighten a dark heart
And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
Grabbing my wrist, the imprint of fear is felt again
And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"
Expressing surprise at finding her once more
Solitude stands in the doorway
Solitude is back in the doorway
And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
Struck by her black silhouette again
By her long cool stare and her silence
Long cool stare and silence bring back memories
I suddenly remember each time we've met
Recollection of each past meeting occurs once more
And she turns to me with her hand extended
She turns to me with her hand extended, palm split with a flower and flame
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
