Lonely Are The Free

Lonely are the free There ain't that many of them they don't walk like you and me They just tumble in the breeze Lighter than a feather altogether separately That's how it's s'posed to be No matter where they wander From post to in between, From here to over yonder, There's no place for them to lean Lonely are the free The silent are the strong Not so much as a whisper tells you anything is wrong You've known all along But you can't help but listen and now the moment's gone Keeps you hangin' on Until the silence signalin' The breakin' of the dawn Is shattered by the sirens singin' Sacrificial songs Silent are the strong That's all there is to see A violent shadow passin' Cross the sun so fleetingly That if you have to ask You miss it anyway you see Lonely are the free
