Clive - To Be Alone [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

V1:
Freezing cold, he shudders all the time
Feels like closing the shutters and the blinds
See him holding the covers on him tight
No lover to call at night to keep from falling
Eyes wide shut and keeping the song alive
Trusts it’ll keep him from dreaming of homicide
Lies that we tell
To comply with ourselves
With a bible in his hands and a rifle in the pants
Tucked in. Left on the night stand is five grand
Resting next to his life plans, stuck between
A bright lamp and the darkness of his reckless thoughts
But he’s harmless and knows when he’s alone in his broken home
He’s got no one to hold him and so he’s his own worst enemy
But he’s all he’s got left to protect him – solo

V2:
Solitude was her companion
Saw the truth and learned to grab it
All the dudes took her for granted
Felt cursed, abandoned. Her personal bandage was
The warm hands of seclusion that held her
And helped her more than the food and the shelter
Wasn’t sure who fell first
But the man she met and married went to tell her

“I don’t know how much more
Of this pain I can take
As the seconds and minutes
Keep ticking away.”

Before she passed, she helped him achieve some peace
And a night that would grant him a dreamless sleep
