Lyrics for Lonely Asylum by Kristine Sa
For better or worse, I am here now.
With a handful of words I’m not allowed
To utter for reasons I don’t understand
So I swallow them down as best I can
Even though I’ve figured it all out
You’re not in love with me, you’re in love with Kristine
And I know exactly what she’s done to you
But when you fall for her, you end up with me
And I hate to be the one to give you the news…
She’s not real, she never was–
even if you wait she’ll never be
She’s not real, all you get is me
She’s not real, she never was–
All you’re seeing is your fantasy
She’s not real, all you get is me
And my love. Is that enough?
I can still taste every bit of hurt
You left me here for better or worse
With a handful of questions I don’t comprehend
Without trace of an answer once again
And I’m sad to say– you’re not the first.
You’re not in love with me you’re in love with Kristine
That’s how it’s always been
And I know exactly what she can do
Don’t fall for her. ‘Cause you’ll be left with me
And I hate to be the only one who knows
This bit of truth
She’s not real, she never was–
even if you wait she’ll never be
She’s not real, all you get is me
She’s not real, she never was–
All you’re seeing is your fantasy
She’s not real, all you get is me
And my love
Is that enough for you
Underneath your beloved ingenue
Is a girl still helplessly on her knees
On a stage unlit, when the thunder hits
She cries and cries and cries
Will you be the first to recognize…
She’s not real, she never was–
even if I wait she’ll never be
She’s not real, all I am is me
She’s not real, she never was–
All I’m seeing is my fantasy
She’s not real, all I am is me
And will that ever be enough?
(teardrops on a rosy bed, I am always waiting
teardrops on a rosy bed, I am always here.)
