There’s no better company than the only one there is (Lonely Souls)
An essay emerging from the Lonely Soul track by U.N.K.L.E.
Loneliness, a commonly condition respected by humans, to many their greatest fear. A profound fear takes over people once they imagine living life and ending up alone within immensity. The thought of watching friends and family pass away and stay put in this time-dependent space causes a sentiment of anguish. Human beings are social by nature; they need the acceptance and caring of others, main reason why they believe they must be in company until the last day of their lives.
Reality is different, we enjoy the company of others, take their advices into account, have fun together, have deep existential dialogues, but, in the end, we are all alone. Throughout life, we find lots of souls offering us support, making us grow, keeping us company, hurting us and, once the end is near: reflection reaches our mind.
God knows you’re lonely souls

This phrase may be interpreted from many perspectives, the one I offer, is a personal one. Starting from the word God: a word with a unique power, word that creates the whole. Loneliness refers to that state when there is absolutely no one with us. The thought of having someone knowing about this loneliness cannot be thought, this would make this state less lonely. God knows shows that the human being, no matter how lonely he may be, he does not accept that, this idea he finds so scary that he must tell himself God knows he is lonely. In the verse, we find words in plural: not only God knows we are lonely, he also knows we have a notion of not being the only lonely ones, we are everyone, and by being everyone, we are not alone in tragedy. We share the sadness of being alone. It is an interesting point… If we have this, are we slightly drifted apart from loneliness? Or does it enlarge loneliness?
