Save Me

Long-nosed old pros, trading used quotes
Men with pencils making copious notes
Out in the dark of the far-left wing
There's an old man shaking a sheet of tin
Judgements fall into well-spun webs
The ditches are full of used bayonets
The local priest still holds the floor
With the same old lines from the time before

Don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, ain't that tough?
Don't you know when I've had enough
I'd like to be alone?
Just to be alone, oh, to be alone

Sacred professions still guard the walls
But the castle keep's guaranteed to fall
Selling souls for a mean half-truth
But the clown and the king share the palace roof
Broken flowers leave a funeral train
When you're out in the desert, don't you pray for rain?

Don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, all that stuff
Don't you know when I've had enough
I like to be alone?
Just to be alone, oh, to be alone

They fool themselves
Into thinking that they're talking about it
That they never doubted
Oh, to be alone, got to be alone

Oh, save me, save me
Save me, save me
I'd like to be alone, got to be alone

Don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, ain't that tough
Don't you know when I've had enough
I laugh at love and all that stuff
Don't you know when I've had enough, I like to be alone?
Just to be alone, got to be alone
Wanna be alone, oh, to be alone
Alone, alone, alone, alone
Got to be alone, wanna be alone
Got to be alone
