2am, where do I begin
Crying off my face again
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed


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


Too afraid, to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night
For the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me till 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...
