lyrics

Lost Souls

In splendid isolation & these days of desperation
In a country that's just trying to stay whole
In a much divided nation, in a state of devastation
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls. 

In these hours of agitation & these times of desolation
Where survival is each & every person's goal
In a Lockdown's duration among the screams of frustration
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls.

Chorus
Where stand the streets of London so stand I
I shall love you 'til the heavens leave the sky
Where stand the streets of London so stand I
I shall love you 'til this grey old city dies. 

In the shadows of false oration & terrors of inflation
Where the dread of death & dying takes it toll
And fear is the narration & leaders in abdication
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls.

With growing frustration at over-crowded destinations
And people's anger almost out of control
With our lives on probation in the numbness of sedation
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls.  

Chorus

(Instrumental)

We who seek our salvation by using drink as medication
Believing all our dreams have been sold
Angry condemnations enter our conversations
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls
I walk lonely through this land of lost souls.
