I love Silverchair
I've been listening to Silverchair since high school. I've watched the band members grow as artists, and observed the evolution of their music. The song "Across the night", has a line that I absolutely love: "I don't want to be lonely, I just want to be alone".
=============================
Here's the lyrics:
Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping
I fell tired, asleep in a golden ocean
Your eyes perspired, a spike in my fascination
I don't mean to make you cry
But this feeling will run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings
across the night
it was the moon who stole my slumber
across the night
i fell in love with people sleeping..
across the night..
across the night..
across the night..
i hugged a man's arthritic shoulder
Sleepless, untamed without a leash on the light around me
I don't mean to make you cry
But this feeling will run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings
across the night
it was the moon who stole my slumber
across the night
i fell in love with people sleeping..
across the night..
across the night..
across the night..
i hugged a man's arthritic shoulder
i hugged a man's arthritic shoulder..
So let us be married and have another baby
'cause I don't wanna be lonely, I just wanna be alone
Yeah let's just get married, shouting baby, baby, babies
"You'll never sleep at all"
But I don't wanna be lonely
Never seen the sunshine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't wanna be lonely
I just wanna be alone
