All of us now
Dent as we fall
Too amorous-like
We call out
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
If not then what
will we stay?
We're in the streetlight
All of us now
Breathe in like smoke
To know what it's like
Breathe in to choke
Every nine days
A smaller house
Try to escape forever
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
We are afraid
For each day
A striking distance
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
If not then what
Will we stay
We're in the streetlight
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
We ought to pray
For each day
A striking distance
Dent as we fall
Too amorous-like
We call out
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
If not then what
will we stay?
We're in the streetlight
All of us now
Breathe in like smoke
To know what it's like
Breathe in to choke
Every nine days
A smaller house
Try to escape forever
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
We are afraid
For each day
A striking distance
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
If not then what
Will we stay
We're in the streetlight
Why are we so alone?
Even with company
We ought to pray
For each day
A striking distance

Wow i dont think this song is anywhere near one of my favourite Mew songs but the lyrics are amazingly touching ... I think this song might be about someone who is so in love with someone else that even when they are with them they miss them. Thats what im getting from it
