Lyrics Information Society – Strength

This night is mine alone
But all that I can do is taken from me
By something that I feel

My head is clear, my eyes are dry

Look around and hear the sound of things
That I can use to help me now

But I lack the strength
To walk alone
To stay away
From the telephone
It’s much too hard
To fight my way
From day to day
And preserve my isolation and purity

So here I am, I’ve worked so hard
I’ve worked so long to be free of her
And still I’m not all here

And I can hear her pain resounding now
But still I’m living through her
I want to have her near

Come back down and look around
At broken thing she’s spread out on the ground

But I lack the strength
To walk alone
To stay away
From the telephone
It’s much too hard
To fight my way

Come back down and look around
At broken things she’s spread out on the ground

Look around and hear the sound of things
That I can use to help me now

Come back down and look around
At broken thing she’s spread out on the ground

But I lack the strength
To walk alone
To stay away
From the telephone
It’s much too hard
To fight my way
From day to day
And preserve my isolation and purity
