Alone

Undercode


From childhood's hour I have not been 
As others were; I have not seen 
As others saw; I could not bring 
My passions from a common spring. 

From the same source I have not taken 
My sorrow; I could not awaken 
My heart to joy at the same tone; 
And all I loved, I loved alone. 

chorus: 

I am alone, 
I'm all alone. 

Then in my childhood, in the dawn 
Of a most stormy life was drawn, 
From every depth of good and ill, 
The mystery which binds me still; 

From the torrent, or the fountain, 
From the red cliff of the mountain, 
From the sun that round me rolled 
In it's autumn tint of gold. 

repeat chorus: 

From the lightning in the sky, 
As it passed me flying by, 
From the thunder and the storm 
And the cloud that took the form, 
When the rest of heaven was blue, 
Of a demon in my view.
