[Intro – Whisper, Breath] You are right here beside me… So why do I feel so alone? We are looking at the same night But it feels like we live in different worlds [Verse 1] Sitting across the same old table Passing through another familiar day You give me one short sentence I search inside it for my name You are close enough to reach with my hand And that is what hurts the most tonight Closer than anyone in this world But my heart has lost its way [Pre-Chorus] I thought you would know without my saying I thought one look would be enough But why am I Growing smaller beside you? [Chorus] You are standing right beside me So why am I this lonely? I am breathing, I am living But only wind moves through my chest You are standing right beside me So why is my heart alone? I am not asking for the words “I love you” Just look at me for once [Verse 2] Even when the room goes dark around us Only the warmth of your turned back remains We were once two people sharing dreams When did we begin to live in separate worlds? I smiled and said that I was fine Pretending became an easy habit Without even knowing, I folded my heart And placed each piece inside a drawer [Sing-Rap – Deep, Lonely, Painful] I hear your breathing in the same room So why am I crying here alone? You are close enough for my hand to reach But somehow I can never touch you A night without you would be easier Than a night with you beside me There is no one left to wait for Still I keep waiting here for you I had to smile I had to say I was okay I hid my heart so you would not feel the weight All the words I swallowed one by one Are rising to my throat tonight I was lonely, more than you could know I fell apart in front of you so many times But you never saw it No… Maybe you saw it and chose not to know I am not asking you to love me more I am asking you not to forget me The person standing here beside you Please look at me just once [Half-Sung Rap – Almost Crying] I am right here… Still standing next to you… So why do I feel Alone every day? Everything that breaks me Everything that wears me down Happens right here beside you So why do you… Never ask me once… [Bridge – Emotional Build] I am afraid that only after I disappear You will finally notice the empty space So once again I say nothing And lie down beside you Even asking you to hold my hand Has become too difficult now So I close my eyes And wait for you to find me first [Final Chorus – Explosive] You are standing right beside me So why am I this lonely? Tears are falling down my face I swallow them where no one knows You are standing right beside me So why do I keep falling apart? I am not asking for the words “I love you” Please look at me just once I am right here Still standing beside you I am this lonely How can you not know? [Outro – Whisper] You are standing right beside me… So why am I… This lonely?
