Lighting Matches
Lyrics
I've had a long day, I've been
walking on, hands in pockets
Wishing on stars that I can't see
I watch all you city dreamers
left hometown believers
Looking down at the ground like me
We're all lonely people, lonely people, alone
Going in circles, going wherever the wind blows and it blows
But I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame til' fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (I wanna know)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
So I lift my eyes up
let conversation lie on
It feels like I've no room for time
Tell me which piece of you is missing
We all got pasts, we fix them
It's just the catch of being alive
We're all lonely people, lonely people, alone
Going in circles, going wherever the wind blows and it blows
But I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame til' fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (I wanna know)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
And I-I-I-I won't stand down
And I-I-I-I won't let it burn down
Can't make this puzzle with a piece that doesn't fit
There must be something more than this
So I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame til' fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (I wanna know)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
