I took a walk in the abyss
and amongst the nothingness I saw a man
Hunched over, decrepit, a familiar face
So I went to take a closer look
Upon this remembrance I stumbled
How could I have forgotten you?
One of my oldest companions
I know its you, solitude !
What kept you in this darkness ?
\"You\"
What locked you away for so long ?
\"You\"
A moment of indifference turned into one of regret
A soul as broken as mine, a friend I could easily forget
He\'s always been there , I didn\'t realise yet
He\'s been quietly waiting, its time to repay my debt
Everyone knows of solitude
Most pretend they don\'t
They neglect him, fear him
To mask what they know will happen if they wont
Yet this man i see before me
Is a sight to behold
A toughened shell of compassion and care
Forced to wither and grow old
He was there when I was lonely
He was there amongst my friends
He waited for me because he knew
I would acknowledge him soon enough
To solitude, I\'m sorry
We are now brothers in arms
I take you by the hand and we walk as one
The times I thought of you as weak, they are all gone
I finally understand
You aren\'t the villain
You aren\'t the enemy
You were misunderstood
We took a walk in the abyss
Walking as one
Wondering who we\'d meet next
As we fade into the dark
