lighting matches

i've had a long day

i've been walking on

hands in pockets

wishing on stars i can't see

i watch 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 so fire catches

stay in the dark another day

will it all get better

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 paint my eyes on

let conversation lie on

it feels like i've no room for time

tell me which piece of you is missing

we all got past

it exists

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 so fire catches

stay in the dark another day

will it all get better

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 back

and i-i-i-i won't let it burn down

gonna make this puzzle with a piece that doesn't fit

there must be something more to this

so i'm lighting matches

making a shelter for a flame so fire catches

stay in the dark another day

will it all get better

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
