Alone and Whole

[Intro] Soft night, a quiet room [Verse 1] Joshua Ezekiel sits by a pale lamp glow Hoping for a friend to understand his soul He speaks to walls, his voice a frail plea Waiting for someone who hears him, finally [Chorus] Being alone can feel like a shelter and a home I learn to stand on my own, let my heart be known If no one understands, I understand me [Verse 2] Dawn brings a gentler truth he starts to see Solitude becomes a friend who stays with him He finds a steady beat inside his chest Realizing he may be enough, at last [Chorus] Being alone can feel like a shelter and a home I learn to stand on my own, let my heart be known If no one understands, I understand me [Outro] He walks ahead, carrying his quiet strength
