Isolation lyrics

Needed you, you were only using

Needing you just tore me down

Here I stand in isolation

Feeling emptiness and doubt

Walking down the broken highway

Sucking sugar plain and sweet

Did your mother ever tell you

That the joyful are the free?

I need some lovin'

Like an inmate needs a dime

I need some lovin'

Like a poet needs a rhyme

Here I stand

In isolation

My empty hands

In isolation

Walking down the broken highway

Sucking sugar 'cause it's my way

Find me one heart to complete with

Heading for the farthest reaches

I need some lovin'

Like a body needs a soul

I need some lovin'

Like a fastball needs control

Here I stand

In isolation

My empty hands

In isolation

Strike up the band

In this proud land

Got a lot to do, got a lot to say

Got a life to live

Here I stand

In isolation
