The Cold And Lonely Lie
2006
Lyrics
Just another heartache, that's what they say
This ever growing void will go away
But they don't understand it
You're everything I hoped to find since I was young
And now you're gone
It's not another heartache, been there before
It's not another loss, it's so much more
It must be my biggest nightmare that's haunting me
I don't believe in reality
God it's killing me
Is there a way to lose a memory
'Cause I can't take this anymore/p>
How long - don't let me wait another year
You hold the key to my world
How long - you're my home, my destiny
With out you life is just a cold and lonely lie
It's not another romance that died too soon
It cut away my heart a fatal wound
I never felt so certain about anything
I still believe in you and me
Don't let me bleed
Is there a change that you'll come back to me
Why did you have to let me go?/p>
How long - don't let me wait another year
You hold the key to my world
How long - you're my home, my destiny
With out you life is just a cold and lonely lie
How long - don't let me wait another year
You hold the key to my world
How long - you're my home, my destiny
With out you life is just a cold and lonely lie/p>
Don't let me drown in all my tears
You hold the key to my heart
How long - you're my home, my destiny
Without you... life is just a cold and lonely lie
Robby talks about The Cold And Lonely Lie
Piano rock-ballad. Expressing my big desperation about losing the one I loved. I remember recording this track as a quick demo, with a drum-machine, for the drummer to rehearse . When I wanted to record the vocal on the final recording again, it couldn’t be done. It was just too painful to reproduce the ‘pain’ I captured on the quick vocal-take recorded for the demo that had the intention I wanted. So I used that vocal-track.
