Suddenly I felt this loneliness
Inside my room, alone in the darkness
Then suddenly, tears falling down my eyes
I kept asking myself why I need to cry.
Being alone is not that easy
Sometimes your mind always wandered and makes you crazy
For so many years, I had been in this empty land of the desert
Earning so much, but never been happy.
I had realized that money can't buy everything
I can get all I need, but not the joy of life that has to bring
Again, after I had finished from work, need to settle in my solitary home
Listen to the same sad songs I played, every time I'm alone.
