Charlie Marshall – Cold & Distant lyrics

He never sleeps at night
Too afraid to turn out the light
Running from the reality
Of the pain he holds inside
And in time, as he lost his way
He's grown so cold and distant
To the ones that loved him most
They can only see his ghost

Roams the halls at four A.M.
With nothing better to do
His cause only begs to differ
When he's looking right at you
No tears in his eyes
Unless he locks the door
Which he often does
When he can't take the pain anymore

You see him alone in a corner, staring into space
On his begging knees, only looking to find his place
Before the worries of the world decide to take their toll
And leave him once again as his life spins out of control

He feels nothing at all
Except pain, and loneliness
Tried time and time again
But never relates to joy
His life hasn't been that long
Though it's still been wasted
On a world wide search
To find one that he could call his own

You see him alone in a corner, staring into space
On his begging knees, only looking to find his place
Before the worries of the world decide to take their toll
And leave him once again as his life spins out of control

He never sleeps at night
Too afraid to turn out the light
Running from the reality
Of the pain he holds inside
And in time, as he lost his way
He's grown so cold and distant
To the ones that loved him most
They can only see his ghost

They can only see his ghost
