Loneliness – Azelin Thomas

[Verse 1]
Before the fall
I had it all
Had my heart
And had my soul
And I, I was still human

Before the fall
I had it all
Halo of gold
Wings like honey
And oh, I never cared about money

That green did something
Something mean to me
I turned into an animal
Only thought about one thing

[Chorus]
Money
Money money
Money
Money money
Forgot my family
Forgot my honey
Ran to the land of rich and
Money
Money money
Money money
Give me that honey honey
Green like money money
Give me that honey honey
Green like money money

[Verse 2]
And they don’t tell you
What a devil you’ll become
Cause once you touch that green
That’s when you’re on the run
Cause you can’t sleep
And you can’t eat
All that’s on your mind
24/7 all the time

[Bridge]
Who needs family
When I got all these dollar bills with me x3

[Outro]
Who needs family
When I got all these dollar bills with me
They keep me company
All this money
Keeps me company
And I swear I swear
I’m not lonely
Who could be lonely
When they’ve got this much money
Honey, who could be lonely
When they’ve got all this money

Scream.

You hear the noise

But don’t understand the why

And I’m crushed under your weight—

Expectations, illusions, lies.

When was the last time we could say,

“We know everything—about the world, about each other.”

When was the last time we could say we knew anything at all?

When I cry, you laugh, and I shrivel inside

Unwatered, unloved, pushed aside.

Sit In Silence.

The noise builds inside me

Chokes my airways, lungs heavy with unspoken words,

Salt and sweat and so much ugly.

Cut me open, all the secrets I hide spill out,

Fill the pages of novels that you will never read,

Let them gather dust on shelves that never know life.

Scream.

You hear the noise,

But you don’t understand the why,

And you don’t try.
