Island In The Sea Lyrics
Island in the sea
Are so much like me
They don't ever change--no emotion, no emotion
Islands on the land
Dry like desert sand
Island in the city
All alone it's such a pity
CHORUS
It's just a masquerade
Just painted laces
When will it change
Never
Islands in the seas
What's come over me
We are both surrounded by the water--empty water
Give me mystery--and the fear it brings
Anything at all to break up the monotony
CHORUS
Islands in the sea
Forever . . . forever
Are so much like me
They don't ever change--no emotion, no emotion
Dry like desert sand
Island in the city
All alone it's such a pity
It's just a masquerade
Just painted laces
When will it change
Never
What's come over me
We are both surrounded by the water--empty water
Give me mystery--and the fear it brings
Anything at all to break up the monotony
Forever . . . forever

I believe the proper title of this song is in fact "Islands"
Yet another song about isolation, in line with Private Life, On the Outside, Go Away, and others.
yes that is the correct title of the song. id really like to know what this song means, its very interesting and one of Boingo's more mysterious ones. i would love to see what you guys come up with...
I think its about someone whos tired of monotonous life in the city.
They're totally removed from reality and their life is consumed by a wish that something fantastical would happen through a metaphor of just being a lone island in the empty sea.
