Loneliness

Lyrics

Loneliness
 Is a place that I know well
 It's the distance between us
 And the space inside ourselves
 
 Emptiness
 Is the chattering in your head
 It's the call of the living
 And the race from life to death
 And I know
 Yeah, I know, what you feel
 ♪
 And I've got a longing that's hard to find
 Won't give me no peace of mind
 Something that I've lived with all along
 Days and weeks and months and years
 Filling in the time, my dear
 Tryin' to find the place where I belong
 
 Hopelessness
 Is the darkness of your heart
 It's the sound of one hand clapping
 While it's pulling you apart
 And I know
 Yeah, I know
 What you feel
 And I've got a longing that's hard to find
 Won't give me no peace of mind
 Something that I've lived with all along
 Days and weeks and months and years
 Filling in the time, my dear
 Trying to find the place where I belong
 And I've got a hunger that's hard to fill
 Drivin' me on overkill
 Tellin' me that everything's gone wrong
 Got me a need that I can't break
 More than I can hardly take
 Somehow I keep on going strong
 When I call your name, I'm gonna scream out loud
 I'll say "Here I am standing in the crowd"
 You'll say, "Come to me, with your open mind
 You never know, what you still might find"
 But you keep me here like a cancelled flight
 An empty train, runnin' through the night
 An ophan child, a broken shoe
 And I'm still down here
 Lookin' out for you
 Are you there for me?
 'Cause I'm here for you
