We Come 1
Faithless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All the subtle flavours of my life have become
Bitter seeds and poisoned leaves
Without you

You represent what's true
I drain the colour from the sky and turn blue
Without you
These arms lack a purpose
Flappin' like a humming bird
I'm nervous 'cause I'm the left eye, you're the right
Would it not be madness to fight?

We come one

In you the song which rights my wrongs
In you the fullness of living
The power to begin again
From right now
In you
(In you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)

Come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one)

We come one (come one, come one, come one)

We come one

We come
We come one

I'm unafraid
Never, never scared
Worries washed
Pressed, aired
I'm the left eye, you're the right
Would it not be madness to fight?

We come one (one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one)
One
(One, one, one, one, one, one)

We come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one)

One
One
One

We come

We come
(One)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Faithless's song "We Come 1" seem to be about the power of love and how it can lift you up and give you the strength to overcome any obstacle. The first two lines of the song, "All the subtle flavours of my life have become/Bitter seeds and poisoned leaves," suggest that the singer is feeling bitter and jaded about life. However, they go on to say "Without you/You represent what's true," suggesting that they have found someone who grounds them and gives their life meaning. The next two lines, "I drain the colour from the sky and turn blue/Without you," are a powerful metaphor for the way that love can change your perspective on life and make everything seem brighter.


The following verse, "These arms lack a purpose/Flappin' like a humming bird/I'm nervous 'cause I'm the left eye, you're the right/Would it not be madness to fight?" suggests that the singer feels incomplete and unsure of themselves without their partner. They compare themselves to a hummingbird, a bird that is always in constant motion and never seems to rest, perhaps suggesting that they don't know how to be still and calm without their partner.


The chorus, "We come one," seems to be a rallying cry for unity and togetherness. It suggests that when we come together and work as one, we can achieve great things. The repeated lines of "come one" emphasize this idea of unity and togetherness.


Line by Line Meaning

All the subtle flavours of my life have become Bitter seeds and poisoned leaves Without you
My life has lost its beauty and goodness without you. Everything that made me happy before now causes me sadness and bitterness.


You represent what's true I drain the colour from the sky and turn blue Without you
You are the embodiment of truth, and without you, my life becomes dull, depressing, and lacks meaning.


These arms lack a purpose Flappin' like a humming bird I'm nervous 'cause I'm the left eye, you're the right Would it not be madness to fight?
I feel out of place and aimless without you. Our relationship and dynamic are like yin and yang, and fighting against that would be irrational.


We come one In you the song which rights my wrongs In you the fullness of living The power to begin again From right now In you (In you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)
Together, we are united and stronger. You have the ability to make everything right and give me hope for the future. You are the key to my happiness and fulfillment.


Come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one)
Let's come together as one entity and embrace our unity.


We come one (come one, come one, come one)
Let's unite and become whole.


I'm unafraid Never, never scared Worries washed Pressed, aired I'm the left eye, you're the right Would it not be madness to fight?
With you, I feel invincible and fearless. All my troubles and fears are washed away when I'm with you. Our differences complement each other, so it would be foolish to argue or fight against that.


We come one (one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one) One (One, one, one, one, one, one)
Let's join together as one entity and become whole. We are a single unit, and we should embrace that.


We come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one) One One One
Let's unite and become one, let go of our differences, and embrace our unity.


We come We come (One) One
Together, we come and become one entity, and we should embrace our unity and become whole.

Crazy how time flies. One day you're a teenager in the early 00's, living the life doing your thing. Next day you're 30+ with a kid watching those people who shaped your teenage years pass away. Life goes so fast, but the music stays forever. Thanks for the memories and rest in peace.
