And suddenly
The world goes quiet
The loud voice I once heard
Who taught me what it is to be a man
Is now, quiet

To her I could say so many things
But that would **** the last bit of me
Im desperate to be alone
To be the man who is strong
Even without his world

Sometimes I miss dancing under the stars
Dancing for so long
I would forget where I'm at
I always thought I needed a partner
But dancing alone, is art

To be a man is to be alone
I fear that being good
Means I should be strong
A man with no world
Is a man who can be free
And that man
That man is me

Suddenly
Im awake again
I look arround
No one's there
I look back in time
I wish she could hold my hand
I remember last night
I was wasted
I screamed for her to be back

When I'm in love I'm a fool
But I dont take any of it back
I might sound desperate
But really
I just miss to be held

They say man don't cry
Then tell me why
The women who made me a real man
Held me when I cried
Fearing it all would end

For more that I try
I can't make them understand
That for more money I'm offered
I won't stop plucking the metal strings
I won't stop writting and singing over simple melodies
I won't stop feeling emotions
When I hear a simple chord

I don't care about money or fame
I don't care about being laid
All that I really want is
To, one day, help someone
The way guitar helped me

Im starting to get old
Yet, I'm still young
I lived life with fear
Yet im alone
I met some incredible people
Who eventually will forget
What's my favourite color
They won't answer that

But if someone asks me
If I ever regret saying
"I love you" a few times
To the girl that I met
She was my world
I did everything I could
And even after promessing to stay
I hate to say this, but she ran away
´
I'm starting to realize
That even if im alone and sad
The trees won't stop growing
And time won't ever slow down
I wasted so much of my time
Giving love to this one girl
Mariana is her name
And I miss her a lot

I wrote her a love letter
It had some beautiful words
But it was not worth the effort
I'm now, alone
