How many times have you told me you love her?
As many times as I wanted to tell you the truth.
How long have I stood here beside you?
I lived through you, you looked through me.

Ooo, Solitude
Still with me is only you
Ooo, Solitude
I can't stay away from you

How many times have I done this to myself?
How long will it take before I see?
When will this hole in my heart be mended?
Who now is left alone but me?

Ooo, Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooo, Solitude
Only you, Only true

Everyone leaves me stranded,
Forgotten, Abandoned
Left behind.
I can't stay here another night

Your secret admirer, who could it be?

Can't you see all along it was me?
How can you be so blind as to see right through me?

Solitude
Still with me is only you
Ooo, solitude
I can't stay away from you

Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooo, Solitude
Only you, Only true

    It's like the Evanescence version of "On My Own," lol . . .

    It's very easily related to: She loves him, but he loves someone else. They're close (good friends, perhaps closer than even the pair of requited lovers)-- he tells her he loves the other girl, she stands by him silently and probably pretends to be happy for him, though deep down she's bitter, and has been for a long time ("all along, it was me"). The lyrics imply this has happened before (perhaps he's had many girlfriends, or this one for a very long time). Waiting for him ("only you")-- or at least unlucky in other loves ("how many times have I done this to myself? . . . everyone leaves me stranded, forgotten, abandoned, left behind") she's left all alone.

    This is the perfect song for unrequited love of friends-- which is so sadly common.
