Crowded Isolation - Kansas

With every step, I hesitate

In a world too fast

It’s hard to move beyond my own door

How can I get away

From eyes that are empty

And look inside

To hearts so cold

Surrounded by faces

That have no names

I’ll take to the streets

Pave a new way

Show some emotion

Alone I can change this reign

Of crowded isolation

Cold in the air

Cold to the touch

Is how we live

I bleed in a crowd

And no one that’s there

Lends a helping hand

Like a silent scream

That falls of deaf ears

Does no one care

Why can’t they see

Who they should be

I’ll take to the streets

Pave a new way

Show some emotion

Alone I can change this reign

Of crowded isolation

Unable to feel

Sensation is gone

No need to react

When your body moves

No one observes

All expression lost

Inanimate beings

Confined in a world

Of shadowed walls

Is this the way

We meant it to be

I’ll take to the streets

Pave a new way

Show some emotion

Alone I can change this reign

Of crowded isolation

From inside our hearts

We need to find grace

Try to reach, make a motion

And try to live face to face

Instead of crowded isolation
