[Intro:]
There was nobody there and the telephone was ringing
So I took the call and I wrote the message for you
Up on that wall!

Found those old frustrating used quotes
Men with pencils making copious notes.
Out in the dark, cut the far left wing
An old man shaking a sheet of tin.
Judgment’s fall, into well spun webs
The pictures of war use bayonets.
Local priest still holds the floor
With the same old lines from the time before.

Chorus: 
Don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, beat that drive!
Don’t you know when I've had enough?
I'd like to be alone! Got to be alone,
Wanna be alone! 

Sacred profession still guard the walls,
But my castle keeps guaranteed to fall
Selling souls for a mean half truth
The power and the king share a palace roof
Welcome flowers lead a funeral train
When you're out in the desert,
Don’t you pray for rain! 

Chorus: 
Don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, beat that drive!
Don’t you know when I've had enough?
I'd like to be alone! Got to be alone,
Wanna be alone! 

They fool themselves
Into thinking that they're talking about it.
That they never doubt it,
Got to be alone, wanna be alone! 

Wow, save me!
Save me!
Save me!
Got to be alone
Just to be alone!

Chorus: 
Oh, don't you know when I've had enough?
Laugh at love, beat that drive!
Don’t you know when I've had enough?
I'd like to be alone! 
Got to be alone,
Just to be alone! 
Want to be alone!
Alone, alone, alone, alone! 
Want to be alone!
Just to be alone! 
Got to be alone!
