The Saint Of Lonely Hearts

when fate has seen you
on the stage of life
(resilient and repressed)
when angels receive you
in their house of light
(reinvented and distressed)
that is when we know that your a hero
when you walk through fire
and fear zero

just Like old blue eyes
you've gone your own way
on broken highways
you have made your name
and carved out sidewalks
that people now stand upon
Cause True Rebels
walk alone
you are the Saint
of lonely hearts

when life has got you
in a stranglehold
(fearful and depressed)
your only friends are
people that you owe
(and frankly they're under duress)
that is when you get down on your knees
and get release from your lonely heart disease)

Like John the Baptist
you have made the way
for the unbelievers and their restless hate
but still you cover them
yes, you bury them with grace
and yes you walk alone
your the saint of Lonely Hearts
