Lyrics for Brian And Robert as interpreted by namdam42

Brian And Robert Lyrics
If you're just staring at your walls
Observing echoing footfalls
From tenants wandering distant halls
Then this one is for you

If children playing all around
To you is noise not pleasant sound
And you'd be lost on the playground
Then this one is for you

All alone the life you lead
A silent diner where you feed
Bow your head pretend to read
This one is for you

Slip past strangers in the street
There's no one that you care to meet
Longing for your TV seat
This one is for you

this is about about someone who is just kind of uncomfortable around other people. this person is happiest and most comfortable when alone. many can relate to this

depression! this song perfectly captures the feeling of being completely uninspired. i think at some point in life everyone can relate to this.

I think it's a beautiful way of extending some love to lonely people. A very meaningful song.

beautiful tune. apparently the title refers to Brian Eno and Robert Fripp, who collaborated on a couple of albums way back when. this one sounds a lot like the music they used to make together. definitely a highlight on the Ghost album.
