I forgot
The reason for an empty hand
To feel the slipping of the sand
To test the weather and erode
Once I heard someone behind me
Who left me here inside the factory
But it was just my shadow going
Once I turned
You think I'd learn
How to be alone
I'll be sure
To make myself scarce
To watch my lantern float above
I won't send up another one
If you ask
I'll tell you that it's just
Some lights go out alone
