[Intro] "Would'ja look at that son? A storm's brewin' out there." [Verse 1] Born of thunder Pulled asunder When that storm moved through my mind In the middle of the night Left a landscape changed behind [Verse 2] Then the rain kept coming Washed the color out Till everything felt gray Too late to mend I stood there under That hard, heavy sky And watched it all decay [Prechorus] Ooh... What have I become? Ooh... What have I become? [Chorus] I'm not alone (I'm not, I'm not) Not truly, not ever, not yet But there's a space that only you knew A hollow ache, a ghost of what we had And sometimes, yeah, sometimes it still feels bad [Verse 3] Broken and scarred I followed that spark Through the storm and the static Kept moving through it But it tore me apart Now I'm still in the dark [Verse 4] Every road I take Loops me back to where I started Back to that garden They told me someone was coming for me But nobody came So I stood there listening to the rain [Chorus] I'm not alone (I'm not, I'm not) Not truly, not ever, not yet But there's a space that only you knew A hollow ache, a ghost of what we had And sometimes, yeah, sometimes it still feels bad [Post-Chorus] Once I was king of the mountain But now I am here All alone Once I was king of the mountain But now I am here All alone [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I have seen many a young adventurer like yourself come through here They think the castle is abandoned Until they open the door and see me here In all my ancient glory Oh How I wish it was I And not you Who could see me like this! [Chorus] I'm not alone (I'm not, I'm not) Not truly, not ever, not yet But there's a space that only you knew A hollow ache, a ghost of what we had And sometimes, yeah, sometimes it still feels bad [Outro] Now the songs of your people have turned to violence Your swords and your shields Your axes and spears All at each other's throats All because they have forgotten who they are And who I am Who you are
