She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard
She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard

The Naked as we came lyrics mainly focus on the topics of heartbreak, love, despair, angst, and reflection, and at the same time the song points out the significance of mortality and loss along with the themes of intimacy and connection.
