The Lonely Ones

If you drive late at night, and pass the town at night.
And know that someone lies awake not sleeping.
If you drive fast at night, and hear the wind at night.
And know tha sometimes you can hear them weeping, the lonely ones.
The lonely ones.
And though you'd like to stop, you know it's wrong to stop.
The nights' to dark for you to ever reach them, the lonely ones.
The lonely ones.
As you drive on we drive faster, you try to leave the night behind you but wait.....
You hear them still.... You always will.
The lonely ones.
Out on the edge of town, you start to turn around.
But in your mirror you see the one who is crying, the lonely ones.
The lonely ones, the lone-ly ones!

The Lonely Ones

by Amanda Palmer

Did you hear about the lonely ones?
They spend their days hid from the sun
Where the spotlight never shows
And no-one's eyes ever will fall or rest upon
So we feed them their dreams between the lines upon the screen
Oh
Just a lonely boy
In a lonely home
He's the lonely one
Not the only one
Just a broken boy
In a broken home
He's a broken one
The unspoken one
Just a broken girl
Livin in a broken world
She's the broken one
Not the only one
Yeah
Lonely boys
Lonely girls
They're all tuning in to Truth of the World...
