Isolation

from ToiL by Steve Blaque

about

Isolation was first played by me in 2010 at the John Lennon show I've mentioned elsewhere. It wasn't a song I played much between 2011 and 2014 but increasingly i began to play it in 2015 and to the end in 2016. This recording was based upon a rehearsal I did at work one morning and on the advice of a friend I let my hands go a bit more on some lead guitar and that along the way the piece became more of a blues version than I'd done before.
The recording here was done in January 2017 with all overdubs coming during that period. The track also features Miranda Vukasovic on vocals who appeared on a lot of the work done from late 2016 and into 2017.

lyrics

"Isolation"

People say we got it made.
Don't they know we're so afraid?
Isolation.

We're afraid to be alone,
everybody got to have a home.
Isolation.

Just a boy and a little girl,
trying to change the whole wide world.
Isolation.

The world is just a little town,
everybody trying to put us down.
Isolation.

I don't expect you to understand,
after you've caused so much pain.
But then again, you're not to blame.
You're just a human, a victim of the insane.

We're afraid of everyone,
Afraid of the sun.
Isolation

The sun will never disappear,
but the world may not have many years.
Isolation.
