Orphan Whitechapel

[Verse 1]
It's just the way it is
How did I find myself to be so pitiful and vulnerable?
And I lay my head upon an empty heartbeat
I'm alone and I'm miserable

[Chorus]
It's just the way that it is and it's hopeless now
I'll never leave the prison inside my head
No one will ever understand the way it feels
To shut out the emotion that drives me back to you

[Verse 2]
Is that your voice that I hear?
Is that the touch that I had once feared?
Is that the way that you look now?
Is this what we are?
Cynical old me, beckoning for company
An illusion that I dream of in a nightmare; what do I care
If you're here and there's nothing left inside of your hollow shell?
I'm still alone, I'm still miserable
Is there hope somewhere in this case of flesh we call our home?
I don't feel it, mother, father, please go back to sleep
I can't bear to see you barely alive
We're all alone, we're all miserable
