lyrics

Lonely people aren't peaceful
Seldom cheerful
We're often feeble
Fed by needles
Led to evil
Selling hell for a piece of freedom
Look at what we've become:
Demons with no allegiance
Heathens with nothing to believe in
Freaks who spend every weekend alone
Sleeping alone every evening knowing something's wrong
All us lonely people
Where do we all belong?

Lonely people sitting silently
Childishly imagining happy couples dying violently
Wait for the day that never comes
And when it finally does
They scream for arms around them and receive none
Privacy is a cage
Rivalries fade
Dynasties change
And all the while millions are wasting away
All alone
Cold as stone
Overgrown
And never known
No never known

Lonely people need only each other
Yet for some reason salvation from isolation
Is almost impossible to discover
At least we have inspiration to hold us over
Yeah, we got our creations and our culture
Poetry, paintings, and sculptures
But these things don't have a chance of saving you from the vultures
No chance of saving you from the vultures
Oh, it's so vulgar
When will it all be over and done?
Will they even notice when we're gone?
