Splendid Isolation Lyrics

Intro G
Verse 1 C G
Here in my room in splendid isola.....tion
Alone in the gloom in splendid isola.....tion
Sometimes I need to be left in my own company
So here am I in splendid isola....................tion
Verse 2 C G
Falling away in splendid isola.....tion
I'm hoping I'll stay in splendid isola.....tion
If they were right I'd agree but it's them they know not me
So here am I in splendid isola....................tion
I'm floating in a sea of my subconscious thoughts
The skeletons are crawling through my closet walls
No-one ever sees me I don't make a sound
And I don't know what I'm gonna do now
That motherless itch has got the best of me
Transcending the things that I will never be
But all along hallucinating life somehow
I still don't know what I'm gonna do now

Verse 4 F G
Pressure starts to push me through my loving daze,
For a moment then I thought I'd lost my wicked ways
It's not that I'm a leper when my mind allows,
And I don't know what I'm gonna do now
But Lennon is a memory in a student brain,
Gripping thought pavilions guilt in freedoms chains
Virginical construction makes the masses wow
But I don't know what I'm gonna do now
Yeah but I see the moon the stars and hemisphere
I've seen the future but it don't look clear
The past is re-appearing on my fevered brow
And I don't know what I'm gonna do now
No I don't know what I'm gonna do now
No I still don't know what I'm gonna do now no no
In splendid isolation ah this is splendid isolation
