about

"Without You" is a bathtub song, says Wilde cheekily... the existentialist love ballad pits the siren song of oblivion against our attachments to our loved ones, calling into question the very nature of reality.

lyrics

I wish that I could take that look you gave me
To the grave, and it would save me
But the memory is fading even now
Of you standing in the summer rain
And my life forever changed
Though I’ve called it back again, again, again
‘Cause I don’t want to leave this place without you
I don’t want to leave you here alone
I don’t want to leave this place without you
But everybody leaves this place alone
The sirens in my ears ring louder every year
And they call me to the beach when I’m alone
They will be with me when the crowds have gone away
So won’t you stay?
‘Cause I don’t want to leave this place without you
I don’t want to leave you here alone
I don’t want to leave this place without you
But everybody leaves this place alone
Alone is how we came here and alone we cried
When they pried us from our lonely mother’s hands
In the stolen lands where somehow we became friends
If there is one life, or a thousand more to see
Of joy and suffering
This one is but a dream
And I don’t want to leave this place without you
I don’t want to leave you here alone
I don’t want to leave this place without you
But everybody leaves this place alone
Everybody leaves this world alone
