Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Sewn To My Side

A part of me has died here on the shore
still sewn to my side but warm no more
could you not have stayed on with me?
the sea was just so close...
waiting by your side your cold and empty eyes
stare into the void as I sever all our ties
waiting by your side your cold and empty eyes
have always seen the lows
of a lesser man – that I am and have always been
you have known it for so long but still you (have) walked on
i cannot renounce what i have done to you
your wounds never healed just became wider
i hoped to wash you clean in the waters of the sea
but the threads became worn and our bonds lighter
i cannot renounce what i have done to you
i kept you for so long just to feel safer
…down in the shadows of the hollow sea
i numbed your innocence with a cold fever
a part of me has died here on the shore
still sewn to my side but warm no more
could you not have cut the threads and left?
confidingly you have died like you have lived...
waiting by your side your cold and empty eyes
stare into the void as I sever all our ties
waiting by your side your cold and empty eyes
have always seen the lows
of a lesser man – that I am and have always been
you knew the truth and for that you punished me
you have known (it) for so long that`s why you have walked on
a part of me – i cannot renounce what i`ve done to you
a part of me – your wounds never healed just became wider
the morning carries fog and makes my smile brighter
you are sewn to my side but it feels much lighter
emotionally deranged i now take you to the sea
cut the threads, wave goodbye and let you down,
let you down, let you down, let you down.

I`m longing for a silence
a rare find in the noise... that
surrounds and plagues my already troubled mind
How did I come to this point?
Where the only true deliverance
is shutting myself off from this life
a nearly bloodless severance
of the spirit and what is me to your eyes
And here I feel lost
In flesh I am evolved but not in my soul
a creator unable to bear a child
And I feel so lost
unfolding in wine and a sexual rush
like silence hiding in a storm of noise
My instincts try to pacify me
a part of me then weeps and steps aside...
but I need to be a hunter for my spirituality
for a violent father (only) creates a violent child
So the only true deliverance
is shutting myself off from this life
a nearly bloodless severance
of the spirit and what is me to your eyes
And here I feel lost
In flesh I am evolved but not in my soul
a creator unable to bear a child
And I feel so lost
unfolding in wine and a sexual rush
like silence hiding in s storm of noise
