We ride the streets of laser beams
We make the cables hum
With coded prayers in silence,
We're all just a weary travelers,
And our work is never done
And now our words are somehow violence
Refrain:
It's just a different kind of lonely,
Feeling bought and sold
The blurring of the vision
A thinning of the soul
Verse 2:
We drink the wine of longing,
From the glass of others dreams,
And dance with ghosts of lovers
A world of tired watchers,
Behind the din of glowing screens
Now we're working undercover
Refrain:
It's just a different kind of lonely,
Muffled voices in the rain,
A letter sitting left unopened
A phone that doesn't ring
Verse 3:
Wearing masks of laughter,
Imposters mouth the words
And pretend to sing a song of comfort
We search for hidden wisdom
In thisartificial world
Never really finding what we've come for
Refrain:
It's just a different kind of lonely,
A gentle hand pulled away
The stranger hiding in the mirror
Never knowing what to say
It's just a different kind of lonely,
A song without a name
It's just a different kind of lonely,
And it plays a different game
