Lonely Nation

"Lonely Nation" is the first track on Switchfoot's fifth album, Nothing Is Sound.

Lyrics
She turns like the ocean She tells no emotion She’s been gunning down the fight

She’s just reminiscing Blood, sweat, and one thing’s missing She’s been breaking up inside, inside

Singing without tongues Screaming without lungs I want more than my lonely nation I want more than my lonely nation Desperate we are young Separate we are one I want more than my desperation I want more than my lonely nation

We are the target market We set the corporate target We are slaves of what we want We’re just numb and amused And we’re just used to bad news And we are slaves of what we want

Lonely, lonely Don’t leave me hollow I’m tired Don’t leave me hollow I’m tired of feeling low Of feeling hollow
