about

Deep in the bowls of loneliness, is hope even still possible? All the angst & malaise has only led the individual to this dark place where the ghouls & demons that haunt their sub-consciousness are their only companions. Yet we still dream of the touch of the one who will ultimately save us from this dark fate.

What people are saying about Loneliness My Friend:

"Hauntingly beautiful! Felt it deep in my soul!"
- Kathy Holmes, FAWM

"Very nice. Again, that vocal is giving it everything, rising this one to stadium torch song level. Flicking my lighter in one hand and my cell phone flashlight in the other.... and swaying along with the mournful lament. I'm there with you buddy. Well done."
- Wolf Kier, FAWM

"Oh yeah, that guitar sound is very nice! It's crunchy, but also mellow; love it! Wow, mad resonances when you're soloing! I don't know why, but I'm thinking of mirrors reflecting each other. Impressive lyrics and vocals again, quite powerful."
- Joanne Gabriel, FAWM

The question remains: where does the nightmare end & reality begin?

See You In The Shadows…

lyrics

Loneliness My Friend
================

Lately I've felt alone
You never call me on the telephone
And I wonder where have you gone?
And wonder should I be even writing this song

I don't know anymore
If you even love me anymore
I don't know anymore
If you even love me anymore

And in the night
I still cry
And by the light
I dream I might survive
But one day
You'll take my hand
And lead me through the dark shadows
That infect this land
Infect the land

But I'm so very lonely once again
I'm so very lonely
How are you my friend?
I'm so very lonely
I don't know when this will end

And in the time that I lay down in bed
I'll think of all the times
I had thoughts of you running through my head
And in those nights of all the darkness
In those acts I'm all alone
I'm alone
I'm truly alone again
In the night I'm alone
So alone
So alone…
