lyrics

There’s no need to speak
I know how you feel
People come and go
Some bruises never heal

I know that it hurts
And it hurts a lot
When your heart is dead
And you are not

Don’t say you’re sorry
Don’t apologize
You can’t stop those tears
Running from your eyes

I can take it all
I know how you feel
I know you must feel

Like a ship caught in a storm
Like a baby, newly born
Like a king without a throne
Like the stars that fade away before the dawn

So alone

Everybody aches
I guess I know the score
Cause I’ve been through this
A few times before

But there’s one more thing
You should know by now
Even though, somehow
You feel

Like a ship caught in a storm
Like a baby, newly born
Like a king without a throne
Like the stars that fade away before the dawn

Like a letter that’s been torn
Like a shape without a form
Like a kid without a home
And nothing he can even simply call his own

But you’re not alone
You’re not alone
