lyrics

A LONELY PLACE TO BE
Wringing the dreams from a sleepless night time
It can't be easy
Now you've got no-one to be with you at all
Just the spectre of the love you knew, but left behind
Only to find that dreaming is never easy
In a lonely place to be
A lonely place to be
And you're living no life
An inverted person
Never needing
Never seeing anything, or anyone
Even the ghosts there want to run
From this lonely place to be
Now even your love has come undone
And wringing the dreams from a sleepless night's no fun
In a lonely place to be
There can't be light in a vacuum, so dark, so all-encompassing
And wringing the dreams from a sleepless night's no fun
In a lonely place to be
Wringing the dreams from a sleepless night time
It can't be easy
Now you've got no-one to be with you at all
And you threw it all away for an airless crawlspace
There inside your mind
Where the spiders climb the broken piano strings
Ringing page after page of unknown numbers
Just to find the key
To let you out of the door of this lonely place to be
The loneliest place that you could be
