Alone by Colin Newman
Performed by
Colin NewmanAbout
In ‘Alone’, Newman reflects on experiences being alone. His overgenerosity has left him with no one, however, despite being in tears from these ‘assaults’, the subject of the track ‘retain[s] a sense of humour’.
This track was used in the 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs.
Alone Lyrics
Alone, with too much generosity
A theatre mask of hostility attracts
Assaults occur infrequently
And those who come, to conquer?
Need strength
But damage accumulates
Still
Moving him to tears
Retained a sense of humour
