In an old apartment waiting for the walls to move

Praying that someone, hoping that no one intrudes

Living like an actor, feeling like a poet bruised

But no man is an island

Lay down your robe, leper or rogue

Keep yourself open here

Don't let the cold close to your soul

Lonely tonight

Passing like a shadow, never letting anyone see

And maybe I'm biased but I don't think

You know the first thing about me

But no man is an island

Lay down your robe, leper or rogue

Keep yourself open here

Don't let the cold close to your soul

No one is free, come light

And heavier stones think to themselves

That they're alone here

But everyone grieves and everyone feels

Lonely tonight

Don't tell me you know

When I know you don't

Don't tell me you know

When you know you don't

Lay down your robe, leper or rogue

Keep yourself open here

Don't let the cold close to your soul

No one is free, come light

And heavier stones think to themselves

That they're alone here

But everyone grieves and everyone feels

Lonely tonight

But no man is an island
