Lyrics

Lonely

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We have material minds

And restless hands

Longing hearts

And lonely beds

But we purchase stuff

And work too hard

Use our heads

And fill our beds

What've we done

What've we done

And we're left with wretched hearts

And mangled minds

Concrete feet

And beggars lies

But we live our lives

On broken earth

We need repair our eyes (?)

To kiss the dirt

What've we done

What've we done

But what do you do when you're out of touch, what do you do?

And how do you live with a conscience so caught up, how do you live?

Oh what do you do when you're out of touch, what do you do?

And how do you live with a conscience so caught up, how do you live?

Oh what do you do when you're out of touch, what do you do?

And how do you live with a conscience so caught up?

So caught up

So caught up

So caught up

So caught up

So caught up

So caught up

So caught up
