Lyrics

This strange isolation
That she feels inside when he’s around
An unusual sensation
That his words are nothing more than sounds

Insulation of the mind
Incompatible and blind

This strange isolation
That he knows that she suffers from
This clear radiation
Split in half like an apple or an atom

They are foreigners at heart
Together but apart
And he knows she won’t suspect
That society objects

This strange isolation
What is it he can feel that he cannot see?
This strange isolation
A contradiction of a lonely company

They are foreigners at heart
Together but apart
Insulation of the mind
Incompatible and blind

But there are rumours going round
People whisper and they frown
Cruel suspicions on their mind
How can they be quite so blind?

If this is infatuation
This deep river of taboo
Let it flow onwards
Onwards like rivers do
If it’s abomination
When he looks into her eyes
He’ll choose damnation
Jump into the Devil’s fire
