Only One Who Waits
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Son of man
You're on your own
The coming winter
You'll face alone
The heart that you cherished so
The hand that you tried to hold
Belong to a stranger
But a vision you crafted
Alone, you came into this world
Came into being
Alone you are still when you're leaving
When you're waning
Hounds of winter
Bay at the moors
Demons of loneliness
Bide at your door now
Not one heart that would stay true
Not one soul that bleeds for you
They'll turn away
One dreary day
Alone, you're in this world
In the middle of it all
If you keep holding on
It will hurt even more
Only one who stays
Only one who waits
Your shadow by your side
Only friend in life
