Ode to Solitude Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Easy on the eyes
Uneasy on the heart
Sew my wrists shut
Sew my wrists shut with hope
Straight into the light
Shining bright
I dare you to dream this
And I dare you to dream this gone

[Pre-Chorus]
What I want to know is
Which makes you smile less

[Chorus]
Here's to the pain
The light of the oncoming train
Come on
Ode to solitude in chains
Here's to the pain
As always, heaven in flames
Now bleeding
Ode to solitude in chains

[Verse 2]
Map the scars of a heart
Bruised and torn
Loosen the noose, love
Loosen the noose with love
[Pre-Chorus]
What I want to know is why
You keep me hanging (Hanging)

[Chorus]
Here's to the pain
The light of the oncoming train
Come on
Ode to solitude in chains
Here's to the pain
As always, heaven in flames
Now bleeding
Ode to solitude in chains

[Bridge]
If I should fail (And I will) to stay (I'm leaving)
Remember not to forget this feeling you have
(You're too frail) I've failed (To save)
Please pretend it never happened, baby

[Chorus]
Here's to the pain
The light of the oncoming train
Come on
Ode to solitude in chains
Here's to the pain
As always, heaven in flames
Now bleeding
Ode to solitude in chains
[Refrain]
Here's to the pain
The light of the oncoming train
Come on
Ode to solitude in... chains

[Chorus]
Here's to the pain
As always, heaven in flames
Now bleeding
Ode to solitude in... chains

[Outro]
Ode to solitude
Ode to solitude
Ode to solitude
Ode to solitude

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
