Mew – Nervous Lyrics 16 years ago
The lyrics are quite clear. The house "haunts" the person the singer is singing to (later "friend") and the singer wants to save him, though he can't anymore.

Well, it's not the house which haunts his friend, it's actually drugs.

- - "Nervous" - -

The singer is nervous about his friend's drugabuse, becouse he knows it is dangerous.

- - "It seems everywhere you go
in the wooden floors of my house
They're out to get you
in a way I couldn't see you" - -

The singer didn't know his friend is a drug addict, but he finds that out and tries to hide his friend's stuff and make him not to have them. The friend, though, is able to get more somehow.

- - "And then you regret
and they're not safe buildings
Should have stayed at home in bed
when the walls are out of focus" - -

The friend realizes that he shouldn't had started using drugs, but the "walls are out of focus" already and he is dependent on drugs.

- - "Nervous instead
and I wish that I could save you
Each time" - -

Now the friend probably gets nervous, too; but he can't stop using more and more drugs and the singer wishes that there was a way to stop it each time he is on pills.

Just some random guessing, but so many Mew song is clearly related on drugs and helping friends to get off of drugs and this looks like it could be, so why not?

Well, he (she?) has just listened the song for seven million times and wrote up everything he (she?) got, maybe boosting this with slowing the song down. But where the hell do you hear "It seems everywhere you go"? I can only hear "Nervous I know" and "Should have stayed at home in bed".

Is not! Well, the first four songs rock over all else, but this is not bad either; IMO it's the 5th best song.

If that's so, IMO it relates to Johan leaving the band. And this is not the only NMSATTISTWANMSTWIGITLWA song that's related to that.
