I stand alone… alone at the side
In a deep thought and heavy sigh
Muted against all sounds
Lest be asked then words untied
I stand alone while the crowds settled
Against the current, I strive
While others have loudly cried
I stand alone without a sound
Your howls I hear but least understand
Can't see the place of where you stand
Yesterday you're at the corner
Today you're at the other side
Forgive me but I won't cry
A bawler's life is not my style
I'd rather stay as a muted ant
And bite when ran aground
Your place is not what I stand
Your goal may not be what I want
But when it is for all and sundry
I'll stand with you and die
