No One About

all around
inside and out
while penetrating
there's no one about

there's no one to see
there's no one to hear
no one to share the air
no one near

it's been a long time
since the moment of birth
minutes and years
not always on Earth

sometimes awake
sometimes in dreams
sometimes like now, alone
so it seems

there's no one but me
there's no one but you
now you know I know
you're no one too

and all around
both inside and out
there's no one near by
there's no one about
