But I'm never alone…

Full lyrics HERE.

It's easy to forget how expressive Alice Cooper could be on the slow songs.  The makeup and goofy anthems like School's Out came to define him, and he is so much more than that.  I'm sure the song above is largely autobiographical, whether or not he realized it at the time.

If you like concept albums, be sure to look up The Last Temptation. It's all about sin, fall, and redemption-- not exactly themes he is known for-- and I'd rank it high on my list of favorite albums. You have to listen to it in its entirety at least the first time; out of order, the songs lose their context. But this is one I'd recommend everyone listen to at least once.
