This night is mine alone but

All that I can do is taken from me

By something that I feel

My head is clear, my eyes are dry

But still there is something going through me

It’s something all too real

Look around and hear the sound of things

That I can use to help me now

But I lack the strength

To walk alone

To stay away

From the telephone

It’s much too hard

To fight my way

From day to day

And preserve my isolation and purity

So here I am, I’ve worked so hard

I’ve worked so long to be free of her

And still I’m not all here

And I can hear her pain resounding now

But still I’m living through her

I want to have her near

Come back down and look around

At broken thing she’s spread out on the ground

But I lack the strength

To walk alone

To stay away

From the telephone

It’s much too hard

To fight my way

From day to day

And preserve my isolation and purity

Come back down and look around

At broken things she’s spread out on the ground

Look around and hear the sound of things

That I can use to help me now

Come back down and look around

At broken thing she’s spread out on the ground

But I lack the strength

To walk alone

To stay away

From the telephone

It’s much too hard

To fight my way

From day to day

And preserve my isolation and purity
