Soul In Isolation - The Chameleons

Soul in isolation

I can hear you breathing down the hall

Soul in isolation

I can hear you whisper through the walls

And if I had a mind to now

I could call to you

Or I could simply shut you out

No more would you cry, cry, cry

I give you my time to kill

But you’ll never never break my will

Or I could sink a sleeping pill

And in the morning could be sleeping still

But most of you are much too ill

Oh, way beyond a surgeon’s skill

In bondage to a dollar bill

What more can you buy, buy, buy-uy-uy

Oh, when you think on it, when you think of it

We’re all souls in isolation

Alive in here, I’m alive in here

I’m alive in here

Oh, when you think on it, when you think of it

Come here!

A word in your ear

A word in your ear

A word in your ear

Back to the trees

Back to the trees

Back to the trees

Big bad giant standing tall

Crushing all the creatures great and small

I’d like to see this giant fall

When will it come?

When will it come?

Words that rattle 'round my head

Struck by lightning, someone said

Diamond bullet through the head

Right in the brain

Are they right in the brain?

Are they right in the brain?

Are they right in the brain?

Will I see the jailer’s face?

Did my mother lead me to this place?

Or will I live to see his face?

Will another come to take my place in total isolation?

Surrounded by fears

Too many clowns, too many tears

Isolation, surrounded by crowds

In another world, head in the clouds

I’m alive in here, I scream

But you still can’t hear

I’m alive in here

I’m alive, turn on the light

Turn on the light

Oh, when you think on it, when you think on it

We’re all souls in isolation

Alive in here, I’m alive in here

I’m alive in here

Oh, when you think on it, when you think on it

We’re all souls in isolation

Alive in here, I’m alive in here

I’m alive in here

Oh, when you think on it, when you think on it

We’re all souls in isolation

We’re always searching for something

Searching

Dear, dear, dead days

I’m longing for you

Sweetest virgin

Now deflowered
