Solitude Within Lyrics

Cold is the air that I breath
sleepless
but I don't mind the rain
With fear I strive
but still enjoying the pain
I'm awaiting the dawn
as I welcome the end

If you ever felt the way that I feel
helpless
and help is all you need
In tears you try
but there is no way
no way you can win
Solitude Within

Cold
but I don't mind the rain
Fear of...

My heart is pounding
never so frightened
My body's trembling
I'm dying
Dying

Cold
but I don't mind the rain
Fear of
Being alone again

All I ever wished for
was a vengeance on solitude
And all I ever longed for...
The presence of you

Cold
but I don't mind the rain
Fear of
being alone again
Cold
but I don't mind the rain
fear of
Solitude Within

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Suicide because of unrequited love.

In the first verse he blatantly states that he is killing himself "as I welcome the end" In the second verse he further explains how he is feeling. Then the third verse reminds us that he's dying, an that what follows are his last thougts. Then he tells us that "all he wished for was a vengeance on solitude" i. e. not being alone. And when he mentions someone specific "the presence of you" he is admitting his love of a specific person. And the last thing to pass trhough his mind is the fear of being alone again, maybe the afterlife isn't the answer? Well, thats what I make of it.

Or maybe it's about the duality of hating to be alone but at the same time wanting nothing else but to be alone. You want to socialize, talk with others, but also you just want to be left alone by yourself and not talk to anyone.
