Lost in Space
Nic. Raine/The Prague Philharmonic Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some kind of crazy, I don't even believe
Guess deep inside we knew that this would happen
They all leave the nest and long to be free
What am I supposed to do?
Now that I'm alone with you
To fill the space that's in between?
What was it we saw when we first started?
What have we lost since we began?
Was it just for lust, oh was it all so simple?
Were you playing Jane to my Tarzan?
What am I supposed to do
Now that I'm alone with you
To fill the space that's in between?
The sun's long set and the TV's fading
I hit the lights and stare at the wall
My coffee's cold but maybe tomorrow
There'll be some light shining down this hole
What am I supposed to do
Now that I'm alone with you
To fill the spaces in between?
The song Lost In Space by Nic. Raine/The Prague Philharmonic Orchestra opens with a depressive mood, with the singer walking in the rain, crying in the chapel, feeling some kind of crazy, and not even believing. The next lines suggest that the singer and someone else had some expectations, that deep inside they knew that this would happen, and that sometimes, people leave the nest and long to be free. These lines almost hint at a breakup or something similar. The chorus then starts, where the singer is asking what they are to do now that they are alone with someone, and how they can fill up the space in between them. It can be interpreted as a plea to bridge the gap that has been created.
The second verse deeps dive into the context of the situation, asking what they lost since they started, and if it was just for lust. The reference towards Jane and Tarzan can mean that perhaps it was a superficial relationship, that had since then lost meaning. The next chorus again expresses the same thought when they ask what they are supposed to do now that they are alone with the person, and how they will fill the space in between them. The song closes with an image of a lonely and depressive mood, where the singer is staring at the wall, with cold coffee, hoping for some light to shine down the hole.
