Solitude 가사

I'm on a bus with a neon sign That says double happiness It's been a lonely July I'm running out of breath It's midnight in New England And I've got the only light On my way back to Baltimore Route 95 I'm thinking of a movie Starring only silhouettes The more you think about it The less you understand. The antagonistic hero And his artificial grin Ride their bicycles to war As the sun begins to set. Solitude's a root And existence is the tree You cannot eat the fruit Without pushing past the leaves The harder that it hurts The louder you can sing A life without some pain Doesn't mean a thing. A gypsy from Los Angeles Drew visions from my hand She said I don't know where I'm going But I'm sure about the end She pulled out a faded picture Of an orchard and the sea Said 'I used to live there Before the war took him from me' I thought if broken hearts could kill We'd all be dying lonely deaths We'd be actors in that movie And we'd all be silhouettes But the hand that goes around the clock, It comes back again So stand up and cast your shadows On the cold pavement. Solitude's a root And existence is the tree You cannot eat the fruit Without pushing past the leaves The harder that it hurts The louder you can sing A life without some pain Doesn't mean a thing
