Strangers Lyrics
Deliciously
I drink up all your tears
On a piano out of tune
I sit and persevere
Deliriously
I eat up all your words
And jumble them around
'Til they become absurd
Remember how it was
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Ferociously
We fumble in the dark
Two lovers acting like strangs
Society won't cage
Remember how it was
They said it wouldn't work
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Like a clock that can't keep time
Bad thoughts to hide
Or a poem that can't ever rhyme
Now strangers sing, this song for her
mao mao mao (ect)
Oh remember how it was
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Remember how it was
Remember how it was
I drink up all your tears
On a piano out of tune
I sit and persevere
I eat up all your words
And jumble them around
'Til they become absurd
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
We fumble in the dark
Two lovers acting like strangs
Society won't cage
They said it wouldn't work
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Bad thoughts to hide
Or a poem that can't ever rhyme
Now strangers sing, this song for her
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Remember how it was

I love this song, especially the opening :) But what does it mean?
to me, ed harcourt is saying to the person he loves, I can cheer you up, and I can mess things up, and bring you down. We can forget who we are and act like we don't know eachother anymore, but we stay together through those times, where we forget what we are even doing, but we remember why we got together in the first place, and so many have and are going through this path right now.
