2 a.m., where do I begin? Crying off my face again The silent sound of loneliness Wants to follow me to bed I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you? I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again ♪ Too afraid to go inside For the pain of one more loveless night But the loneliness will stay with me And hold me 'til I fall asleep I'm the ghost of a girl that I want to be most I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you? I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in To take my heart again Broken pieces of a barely breathing story Where there once was love Now there's only me and the lonely Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you? I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in To take my heart again
