Isolation - The Smashing Pumpkins

Be clear every day, every evening

It calls here aloud from above

Carefully watched for a reason

Mistaking devotion and love

Surrendered to self-preservation

From others who care for themselves

But life as it touches perfection

Appears just like anything else

Isolation

Mother, I tried, please believe me

I’m doing the best that I can

I’m ashamed of the things

I’ve been put through

I’m ashamed of the person I am Isolation

But if you could just see the beauty

These things I could never describe

Pleasures and wayward distraction

Is this my wonderful prize?

Isolation
