Lonely Love

They light me up like I'm a skyline. Say my name like it's a prayer. Hands in the dark, screens in the air. Everybody wants a little piece from this. They love the glow, the laugh, the entrance. The perfect shot, the way I shine. But when the door shuts behind the signs, None of that brightness stays as mine. They count the hearts, they count the views. They call it heaven, call it proof. But when the noise falls out of me, it's Just the room and me against it. They call it love. I call it lonely. They want my life. But never know Me. They call it love. I call it lonely. Lonely. Oh. Some write my name like they adore Me. Some disappear by morning light. Some swear they know me from a moment, Then turn to strangers overnight. I gave them songs, I gave them laughs. I gave what I could let them see. But there's a world behind the curtain. Where no one ever gets to me. They see the gold, not what it costs. They love the crown, not what it lost. And what looks beautiful from far away, Feels like a courtroom when you're in it. They call it love. I call it lonely. They want my life. But never know me. They call it love. I call it Lonely. Oh, Lonely. Oh. If all the lights went out around me. If all the voices disappeared. Would anybody stay in silence? Would anybody want me near? I belong to me. That's how I survive it. A million hands reach out. But nobody's inside it. They call it love. I call it lonely. They sing my name. But never know Me. They call it love. Oh. I call it lonely. Oh, lonely. Oh. They call it love, I call it Lonely. Oh. Oh. Oh. They call it love.
