NIGHTHAWKS
Down at the end of lonely street
The fools to misfortune must forever meet
Behind a thousand glass panes all the lonely go
Where hatless strangers swim to and fro:
You can see but you can’t reach
Because you cannot learn what you cannot teach
Real loneliness comes with a price
Those paralysed by loneliness aren’t always that nice:
Loneliness is a very special place
It has no proper name or face
There are miles of glass triumphantly smiling
But those behind it are endlessly toiling
Silently mouthing all they wish to be
I want to be free, I want to be free
I just want to be free.
