I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier place
Than lying in this bed
I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer, held, to my head
The chemicals between us
There is no lonelier place
Then lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier place
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this bed
We're of the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All of my lovers, lovers, lovers
The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier face
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
The chemicals
The chemicals between us
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier place
Than lying in this bed
I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer, held, to my head
The chemicals between us
There is no lonelier place
Then lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier place
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this bed
We're of the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All of my lovers, lovers, lovers
The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier face
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
The chemicals
The chemicals between us

-->"I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways"- reference to remembering love implying its no longer a factor in bed.
-->"All my feelings rose today. And I want you to remain. The power of children can amaze."- Shows an actual love, wanting the person to stay. Possibly the importance of children as creating life out of love, not just exchanging chemicals.
-->"The chemicals between us. The walls that lie between us, Lying in this bed.
The chemicals displaced, There is no lonelier state Than lying in this bed."
^^Walls in a bed, no real attachment, not real emotion, shallow and empty connection. No lonelier state implies a complete lack of connection once again, because in the bed he has nothing that used to remain.
-->"Chemicals displaced"- Exchange of hormones, simple satisfaction through sex, devoid of emotion.
I agree with saxifrage, it could be about the deterioration of love and its involvement in sex. I also feel like it can be a relationship that was once strong but declined, or an entirely false one hence "remember everything you said."
Honestly, I just got out of a relationship with a girl thats fucked in the head, strings me along while simultaneously doing the same to 2 other ex's. Shes completely subservient and feels obligated to like anyone who likes her in return. She doesn't talk to me at all when at home on the weekends with other guys, and comes back to me during the school week everytime. Her only expression of "love" was through sex. She has too many walls and fights any true emotion. To me, this song describes her to a tee.
