Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wake Up In The Night, Stare Into The Dark.
You Can Feel Your Fear,Tearing At Your Heart.
Trying To Lock Your Door, There Is No Escape.
I'll Be Watching You, Every Move You Make.
Someone Please, Please Save Me.
No One Will Save You - They Won't Try.
Everyone's Lonely When They Die,
Everyone's Lonely When They Die.
No One In The World Will Want You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Need You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Love You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Miss You - Save Me!
Walking Down The Street, Footsteps Close Behind.
Dare Not Turn Your Head, Don't Know What You'll Find.
Trying To Shout For Help, Your Words Turn To Dust.
Looking For A Friend, No One You Can Trust.
Someone Please, Please Save Me.
No One Will Save You, They Won't Try.
Someone Please, Please Help Me.
Everyone's Lonely When They Die,
Everyone's Lonely When They Die.
No One In The World Will Want You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Need You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Love You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Miss You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Love You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Miss You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Love You - Save Me!
No One In The World Will Miss You - Save Me!

Vincent Crane was an amazing keyboard player.... Very underrated....

Like a Keith Emerson, though more blues oriented.
@progressiverockjournal49
Underrated if someone don't know Progressive music....every Progger know A.R. and in the first album there was Carl Palmer on drums....Vincent in my opinion was a very talented artist a Rock genious

I love Vincent. An ignored great musician...
@massimogallazzi
Simply fantastic
@gelsol
Big fan of the Nick Graham version of the first album. I love the John Cann stuff too, but Graham had a cool growl to his voice. I like his stuff in Skin Alley, too.
@grifftrain
Heavy, Heavy band. very underrated, but i understand they are not for everyone. They were hard to classify, which is why I liked them. They had elements of heavy metal, rhythm and blues, funk, rock, prog, and everthing in between
@alondathomas293
Only reason I even heard about this band was because Crane and Palmer (the organist and drummer) used to be in The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, and they formed this band after they left that previous band. Checking them out now.
