Awake aware alone
Lost and far from home
I walk without these walls
So there is less to fall

CHORUS
I am naked
I have nothing left
My bones are picked clean
And riddled with regrets
Nothing can touch me
I've nothing left to take
For I am naked
But I can never break

Bombarded by brutal events
Like the rays of a sun
Knocked to my knees
By the waves that continued to come
Each time I rise to my feet
I am knocked to the ground
But I am an element
Nothing can break me down

(Chorus)

Link after link in a chain
Pulling hard at my limbs
The search party's lost now
The outlook is growing dim
Praying for wisdom
There's nobody left to impart
But I am an atom
And nothing can take me apart

(Chorus x2)

    General Comment:It seems that a lot of things that hold a lot of meaning to me bring back my feelings of being alone and empty. It's upsetting.

    However, this is a different kind of empty that I can relate to my attitute towards VNV Nation's "Fearless." It's reminds me of being alone and unwanted, but trying to be strong through it. That's what it is to me. It makes me sad. U_U

    General Comment:Being overloaded by everything that has happened in a course of hr, wk, day, and in life. Dont be riddled with regret or just like the chorus it will happen. But alas if you can overcome and endure "But I am an element, Nothing can break me down" "But I am an atom
    And nothing can take me apart "

    General Comment:this song means a lot to me, it expreses creation and destruction at the same time, it blends the strong force of the human race and the week part that we are in the universe.
