Under the Umbrella Lyrics
This train is moving so fast
I don't even know where it's going
A tunnel's up on the left
I guess everybody is guessing
They're growing so old
They're growing so oh-oh-old
Growing old
In your house
And you're here with pills
You're growing so old
You can't even feel this
In your house alone with the phone
You're growing so old
You can't even hear this
It's 10 AM in the diner
A man's waiting in front of me
Living my dreams through his planner
One thing they'll know it don't mean a thing
He'll see he's growing old
I'm growing so oh-oh-old
Growing old
Oh, we try and remember hazy days
Mixing up medication
Take it 'til you find your way
Oh, we try and remember hazy days
Hiding under umbrellas
Dizzy dancing to the grave
You are, you are
In the room
Under the umbrella
Hiding from all the rainfall
Hiding from it all
Nothing's ever enough
Na na na-nananana
I don't even know where it's going
A tunnel's up on the left
I guess everybody is guessing
They're growing so old
They're growing so oh-oh-old
Growing old
And you're here with pills
You're growing so old
You can't even feel this
In your house alone with the phone
You're growing so old
You can't even hear this
A man's waiting in front of me
Living my dreams through his planner
One thing they'll know it don't mean a thing
He'll see he's growing old
I'm growing so oh-oh-old
Growing old
Mixing up medication
Take it 'til you find your way
Oh, we try and remember hazy days
Hiding under umbrellas
Dizzy dancing to the grave
In the room
Under the umbrella
Hiding from all the rainfall
Hiding from it all

This is a good song! Surprised no one has commented on it. I think its about someone taking pills to make themselves feel or look young, or maybe using steroids or something. And someone's saying, you'll get old anyway, might as well live your life. That's how I look at it.
This song is awesome! And so is the band! I agree, withinyourmeans170. I think the song is sort of just saying that people try to plan and hide and stay young but life goes so fast that before you know it, none of it really matters anymore.
Regardless of what it means, this is probably one of my favorite Company of Thieves song.
