Sadness Loneliness

As previously posted, I am an 80' 90's music lover and during the 1990's I really love the songs from the Backstreet Boys. The melody of the music is beautifully composed and the lyrics are lively, you practically attached your self and feel the music. Hardly you hear new songs today that's within those level of engagement. You would feel the emotion with the music. Here is a good audio compilation of their greatest hits in Amazon.

One of my favorite songs by the BB is Shape of my heart.
Here is the music video care of YouTube:



Here are the lyrics care of LYRICS007:


Brian: Mmmm...yeah, yeah
Baby, please try to forgive me
Stay here don't put out the glow
Hold me now, don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man that I've become
Oh yeah

All (Chorus): Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was trying to be someone
I played my part and kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

AJ: Sadness is beautiful
Loneliness is tragical
So help me, I can't win this war, oh no
AJ & Kevin: Touch me now, don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become

All (Chorus): Lookin' back on the things I've done (Lookin'
on the things)
I was trying to be someone (Trying to be)
I played my part and kept you in the dark (AJ: In the dark)
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Nick: I'm here with my confession
Got nothing to hide no more
I don't know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart

All: I'm looking back on things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
And keep you in the dark (Brian: Keep you in the dark)
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

(Chorus): Lookin' back on the things I've done (Lookin' on
the things)
I was trying to be someone (Brian: Trying to be someone)
I played my part and kept you in the dark 
Now let me show you the shape of my heart (Nick: Now let me
show you the true shape of my heart)
Lookin' back on the things I've done 
I was trying to be someone 
I played my part and kept you in the dark 
Now let me show you the shape of...

AJ: Show you the shape of my heart

The line (bold italics red) "Sadness is beautiful Loneliness is tragical"  is very striking to me.
It let's you think about the difference between sadness and loneliness. For me I rather be sad than lonely as sadness can be temporary and short. Loneliness leads to prolonged and deep sadness.
