[Intro] I talk to no one in this desolation [Verse] I don't know how long it's been I lose track of time in the waste I heard time flows like sand through an hourglass But that's a lie, it's not true Sand washes time, washes away the past So I sit here in this desolation Wondering how much time has passed [Pre-chorus] I don't know how long I've been here I don't really know if I care I like the solitude, the empty space The space that surrounds me The open sky above It's my solace, my solitude, my emptiness. My desolation... [Verse 2] Silence fills the air around me I can't remember the last time I heard someone else's voice Time is supposed to flow like sand through an hourglass But that's a lie, that I know Silence makes time stand still So I walk here in this desolation Listening to my own breath [Pre-chorus] I don't know how long I've been here I don't really know if I care I like the solitude, the empty space The space that surrounds me The open sky above It's my solace, my solitude, my emptiness. My desolation... My desolation... [Chorus] This desolate place is mine This is my desolation And I like it this way Not a soul around Not a voice to be heard No voice but my own As I call to the sky I talk to no one in this desolation My desolation [Bridge] I embrace the passage of time I embrace the silence that holds me I embrace the loneliness that becomes my solace and my solitude in this empty, desolate place I look up at the sky I heard there used to be stars One day, I'd like to see a star in this desolation [Final Chorus] This desolate place is mine This is my desolation And I like it this way Not a soul around Not a voice to be heard No voice but my own As I call to the sky I talk to no one in this desolation My desolation My desolation
