Life Can Be Lonesome

By Me

(Disclaimer: I don't own the Phantom)


Deep in the shadows,

Deep on the path into the darkness deep as hell,

Lies the monster that all people dread.

Only one girl can save him from his solitude.

Only one girl can make his song take flight.

Sorry to say that girl left;

She left him alone,

Alone in his own despair.

That girl broke his heart

When she left for someone else.

Now that monster is lonesome.

He no longer trusts the world.

Everyone he once considered dear to him

Left him to fend for himself.

Life can be lonesome

When no one cares about you.

Life can be lonesome

When the people you once loved are gone.

Life can be lonesome

When everyone thinks you a monster.

The monster everyone fears

Only looks like a monster.

Deep down he is like everyone else,

But still people decide that doesn't matter.

This monster is no monster really,

But a human being like you and me.

Still everyone thinks him a monster.

He has tried to prove himself,

If only that girl had given him a chance.

Instead she left for someone else.

Someone who isn't a monster.

Now the man thinks the entire world against him.

The man blames himself for everything considered monstrous.

This poor monster feels.

This poor monster thinks.

This poor monster loves.

Everyone he once considered dear to him

Left him to fend for himself.

Life can be lonesome

When no one cares about you.

Life can be lonesome

When the people you once loved are gone.

Life can be lonesome

When everyone thinks you a monster.

The monster everyone fears

Only looks like a monster.

But this monster

Is no monster.

He is a man.

He is a man whose life is lonesome.

After a big incident when he was revealed to the world,

Everyone has hated him.

Everyone has hated him more than ever before.

Once again, this man blames him self.

He blames himself for things he never did.

His life is lonesome.

I only wish to tell him one thing.

Life can be lonesome.

But when life puts you down in the dark

There is only one thing to do.

Stand up again and soon

Love will conquer the world.

And once again

You will somehow fit in with everyone else,

No matter what you look like.

But until then,

Life can be lonesome.
