I come to SL often to try and get away from real life issues, but I have been having so many issues lately that even that is becoming more and more difficult. Sometimes when no one else is there, I just go off somewhere and sit alone.

I was listening to a song from .hack //SIGN called "The World" and the lyrics seem appropriate, so I have pasted them below.

---

You are here alone again
In your sweet insanity
All too calm, you hide yourself from reality
Do you call it solitude? Do you call it liberty?
When all the world turns away to leave you lonely

The fields are filled with desires
All voices crying for freedom
But all in vain they will fade away
There's only you to answer you, forever

In blinded mind you are singing
A glorious hallelujah
The distant flutter of angels
They're all too far, too far to reach for you

I am here alone again
In my sweet serenity
Hoping you will ever find me in any place
I will call it solitude when all my songs fade in vain
In my voice, far away to eternity
