Orphan Songtext
von Whitechapel

It′s just the way it is
How did I find myself to be so pitiful and vulnerable
And I lay my head upon an empty heartbeat
I'm alone (I′m alone) and miserable

It's just the way that it is and it's hopeless now
I′ll never leave the prison inside my head
No one will ever understand the way it feels
To shut out the emotion that drives me back to you

Is that your voice that I hear?
Is that the touch that I had once feared?
Is that the way that you look now?
Is this what we are?


Cynical ol′ me, beckoning for company
An illusion that I dream of in a nightmare
What do I care if you're here and there′s nothing left
Inside of your hollow shell?
I'm still alone, I′m still miserable

Is there hope somewhere in this case of flesh we call our home?
I don't feel it, mother, father, please go back to sleep
I can′t bare to see you barely alive
We're all alone, we're all miserable

Forget my voice
Forget my eyes
My heart is content now
To betray my insides

It′s just the way that it is and it′s hopeless now
I'll never leave the prison inside my head
No one will ever understand the way it feels
To shut out the emotion that drives me back to you
