To repent is to believe

Because I headlong fled alone 
Tonight I’ll go to bed alone

When I’ve bled, I’ve bled alone
Frozen youth and dead alone

The bugs teach me to tread alone
I pray I’m not misled alone

The silence that I dread alone
Appointed in your stead alone

I think of what you said alone
And fall asleep instead, alone
