John Frusciante - Song To Sing When I'm Lonely

Album: Shadows Collide With People (2004)

Shadows Collide with People is the fourth studio album by John Frusciante, released February 24, 2004. The album was written during the recording of By the Way, and is widely regarded as his most accessible work, featuring a mix of guitar-driven alternative rock, folk ballads, and electronica. Frusciante has stated that this was his most expensive album to date, costing around $150,000 to produce.

Flea plays a double bass on "The Slaughter", the closing track of the album. All tracks were written by John Frusciante and the majority of the vocal work is performed by him.

Frusciante also made acoustic and demo versions of these tracks available to fans through his official site, now only a blog, as an alternative to the highly produced sound of the record. A promo version of the album was also made, with the tracks "Omission", "Song to Sing When I'm Lonely", and "Failure 33 Object".

The album reached number 191 on the Billboard 200 and #11 on Heatseekers.

On the vinyl release of the album the words "One step away" were inscribed on side A, "There's riddles in the shadows" on side B, "A hint of sadness" on side C, and '"What they least suspect is coming next" on side D. All of these were hints to lyrics on John's next solo album The Will to Death.

Lyrics:

A song to play when I'm lonely

Win and never play a game again

No one to face when I'm falling

Holding tight to dreams that never end

I'll be you (ooh)

I do (ooh)

I'll be you (ooh)

No one's afraid to be called by another name (ooh)

No one dares to be put down where they don't belong (aaah aaah)

Nowhere's anyone's reason

Everything dying and living

Out with these faults and you make me a baby

Faking a movement by no ones seeing it

No one always finds peace flung

No one chooses to beat my pride down

Symbols pierce through me (oooh wee ooh)

People fail to be drawn up

Sunlight to fate accumulates (ooh wee ooh)

Loving pain to be clung to (ooh)

By luminous bodies (ooh)

Only waiting for long (ooh)

Sings to be wrong (ooh)

And true to us (ooh)

Out of place in my own time

Drowning thinking that I'm dry

Holding on to facts that'll never be proven (oooh)

Faking an action cuz no one's looking

Hello when I'm crashing

Feeling nothing when my life's flashing before my eyes

You should've threw me down

Is the content so much

You should've threw me down

Is the content so much

Hey ya

You should've threw me down (I'll be you, I do)

Is the content so much

Hey ya

You should've threw me down (I'll be you, I do)

Is the content so much
