I Walk Alone

I walk these streets where shadows play
Haunted by ghosts I can’t escape
The weight of sins, they’re etched in stone
A life of scars, I’ve faced alone
I’ve done what I can’t forgive
But I’m still searching for a reason to live
I’m not asking for a saving grace
Just someone to see my face

Can you hear me when I cry?
Will you stay and catch the lie?
I’m not asking for redemption’s hand
Just someone to help me understand
All I need is a moment of peace
A quiet voice, a sweet release
Let me speak before I’m gone
I walk alone, I walk alone

Every step feels like a fight
Through memories that steal my light
I built my walls, I’ve shut them tight
But the silence cuts me every night
I’m not a saint, I’m not a king
I’m just a man with broken wings
I’ll never ask to change my past
Just let me breathe before the last

Can you hear me when I cry?
Will you stay and catch the lie?
I’m not asking for redemption’s hand
Just someone to help me understand
All I need is a moment of peace
A quiet voice, a sweet release
Let me speak before I’m gone
I walk alone, I walk alone

I’m not a hero, I’m not a saint
I’m the picture of a man who’s faint
But if you’d listen, just for a while
Maybe you’ll see a man who can smile
I’m not looking for mercy’s light
Just one soul to share my night

Can you hear me when I cry?
Will you stay and catch the lie?
I’m not asking for redemption’s hand
Just someone to help me understand
All I need is a moment of peace
A quiet voice, a sweet release
Let me speak before I’m gone
I walk alone, I walk alone

So if you find me on this road
Carrying this heavy load
Don’t offer judgment, don’t ask why
Just know I walk alone
