This was my to-go album when I was going through an unrequited relationship. I was in New York City for work, it was raining almost daily and I hit the streets listening to Emily's haunting voice on my headphones, feeling each note and word like it they were written for me. It was a confusing and tough time
I was gifted this song, shared to me by someone I once loved - I remember where we were, how this person felt in my arms, and I never realized what a haunting, tragic, and meaningful song it would become for me. It brings me to a place I can never return to.
I'm glad I know this song, and can listen to it any time I want. It gets me through my day-to-day issues, what I have to deal with, things I know that should have been left buried.
Cursed with a love that you can't express It's not for a f*ck, or a kiss Rather give the world away than wake up lonely Everywhere and every way I see you with me Crowd surf off a cliff Land out on the ice Crowd surf off to sea Float towards the beach If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been Are we breathing? Are we wasting our breath? It won't be enough to be rich All the babies tucked away in their beds We're out here screaming The life that you thought through is gone Can't want out, the ending outlasting the mood I wake up lonely If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been When you phone me tell me everything I did If I'm sorry you lost me you'd better make it quick Cause this call costs a fortune and it's late where you live Rather give the world away than wake up lonely Everywhere and every way I see you with me All the babies tucked away in their beds We're out here screaming The life that you thought through is gone Can't want out, the ending outlasting the mood I wake up lonely
So so Soz love this oldie but gold y now I rest my self. Took me a long time. Or not I wake up LONELEy nooooooooooo can't be the end but yeah totally listening to the rest again is great!!

Had a co-worker share this album back in 2007. It still holds as one of the most beautifully melancholy songs I've ever experienced.
cursed with a love that you can't express. one simple sentence. so many meanings.
I love this song haven't heard it in many years makes me very nostalgic and sad. Emily Haines and metric for life
i always come back to this song to cry
very heavy song. it gets to me every time she says "I wake up lonely".

Beautiful song, i just love it and i feel it perfectly!
Cursed with a love that you can't express
It's not for a f*ck, or a kiss
Rather give the world away than wake up lonely
Everywhere and every way I see you with me
Crowd surf off a cliff
Land out on the ice
Crowd surf off to sea
Float towards the beach
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been
Are we breathing? Are we wasting our breath?
It won't be enough to be rich
All the babies tucked away in their beds
We're out here screaming
The life that you thought through is gone
Can't want out, the ending outlasting the mood
I wake up lonely
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been
When you phone me tell me everything I did
If I'm sorry you lost me you'd better make it quick
Cause this call costs a fortune and it's late where you live
Rather give the world away than wake up lonely
Everywhere and every way I see you with me
All the babies tucked away in their beds
We're out here screaming
The life that you thought through is gone
Can't want out, the ending outlasting the mood
I wake up lonely
So so Soz love this oldie but gold y now I rest my self. Took me a long time. Or not
I wake up
LONELEy nooooooooooo can't be the end but yeah totally listening to the rest again is great!!
Such a great album.

Love u so much
Cursed with a love that you can't express
It's not for a fuck or a kiss
Rather give the world away
Than wake up lonely
Everywhere and every way
I see you with me
[Chorus]
Crowd surf off a cliff
Land out on the ice
Crowd surf off to sea
Float toward the beach
[Post-Chorus]
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been
[Interlude]
Are we breathing? Are we breathing?
Are we wasting our breath?
It won't be enough to be rich
[Verse 2]
All the babies tucked away in their beds
We're out here screaming
The life that you thought through is gone
Can't wind down
The ending outlasting the mood
I wake up lonely

This song could be performed very well in so many different ways. I can't help wondering who she's talking about, especially if they actually exist.
Sloan Incosis How did you figure this out?
seems like she's talking about herself
Emily.
