  • Solitude is when I’m with You

    Solitude is when I’m with You

    Verse 1:

    Sitting here all by myself
    Feeling like there’s nobody else
    But then I realize that I’m not alone
    Loneliness is just a feeling, not a home

    Chorus:

    Loneliness and solitude, they’re not the same
    One’s a feeling, one’s a choice to claim
    So don’t get them confused
    ‘Cause they both can be abused

    Verse 2:

    Being alone can be a gift
    A time to reflect, to heal and shift
    But loneliness is a weight on your heart
    And it’s tearing you apart

    Chorus:

    Loneliness and solitude, they’re not the same
    One’s a feeling, one’s a choice to claim
    So don’t get them confused
    ‘Cause they both can be abused

    Bridge:

    It’s okay to be alone sometimes
    But don’t let loneliness take over your mind
    Find joy in the quiet, find peace in the still
    And remember, you’re never truly alone, you always will

    Outro:

    Loneliness and solitude, they’re not the same
    One’s a feeling, one’s a choice to claim
    So don’t get them confused
    ‘Cause they both can be abused
    Don’t let them take over your life
    And remember, you’re never alone, you’ll always survive.
