Island Built for One

Have I been exiled?

Why do I find that my echo only comes back to me?
The sun is sleeping in the distance...

And I can't figure out where I am...
Or even who I am.

You lost me at hello.
And I found myself when we said goodbye.

I have learned lessons that are not worth repeating...
I've kissed lies from a mouth not worth speaking...

How do you manage to keep me alive on an island built for one?

I've seen more rain storms than I have sunshine.
I've heard more cries than laughter.

And yet I feel safe...
All alone with only an echo and an island.

You try so hard to be different...
When in my heart I knew you were a kidnapper also.

You kidnapped me to this island built for one.

I pace back and forth...
Wondering when you will return.

Have you stranded me forever?
Or am I waiting for a rescue boat?
