Lighting Matches
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 light up
It feels like I've known you for time
Tell me which piece of you is missing
We all got parts need fixing
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?
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 light up
It feels like I've known you for time
Tell me which piece of you is missing
We all got parts need fixing
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

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?
