"I Stand Alone"

"Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.  Ephesians. 6:13
 
 

"Like every tree stands on its own - reaching for the sky - I stand alone.

I share my world with no one else.  All by myself I stand alone.

I know the sound of each rock and stone.  And I embrace what others fear.

You are not to roam in this forgotten place.  Just the likes of me are welcomed here.

Everything breathes.  And I know each breath.

For me it means life, for others it's death.

It's perfectly balanced, perfectly planned!

More than enough for this man -

Like every tree stands on its own - reaching for the sky - I stand alone.

I share my world with no one else.

All by myself I stand alone.
 
 

I've seen your world with these very eyes.  Don't come any closer, don't even try!

I've felt all the pain and heard all the lies.  For in my world, there's no compromise.

Like every tree stands on its own - reaching for the sky - I stand alone.

I share my world with no one else.  All by myself I stand alone."

All by myself I stand alone.

All by myself I stand alone.
