- England Lyrics

Someone send a runner
Through the weather that I'm under
For the feeling that I lost today
Someone send a runner
For the feeling that I lost today

Someone send a runner
Through the weather that I'm under
For the feeling that I lost today
Someone send a runner
For the feeling that I lost today

You must be somewhere in London
You must be loving your life in the rain
You must be somewhere in London
Walking Abbey Lane

I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make corrections

Famous angels never come through England
England gets the ones you never need
I'm in a Los Angeles cathedral
Minor singing airheads sing for me

Put an ocean and a river
Between everybody else,
Between everything, yourself, and home
Put an ocean and a river
Between everything, yourself, and home

You must be somewhere in London
You must be loving your life in the rain
You must be somewhere in London
Walking Abbey Lane

I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make corrections

Famous angels never come through England
England gets the ones you never need
I'm in a Los Angeles cathedral
Minor singing airheads sing for me

Afraid of the house, stay the night with the sinners
Afraid of the house, stay the night with the sinners
Afraid of the house, 'cause they're desperate to
entertain

What is the meaning behind England lyrics?


When we analyze the meaning behind the words, the National's 'England' reveals the feeling of being far away from a person, represented by an ocean and a river between them, through its lyrics. The song points out the case of very popular people being in the wrong place, oscillating locations like London and Los Angeles. Isolation, longing, and the difficulty of finding a connection the lyrics express are all set among the feeling of not belonging and the desire for interaction. England mainly focuses on heartbreak, angst, despair, reflection and solitude. However, the song also highlights loss and yearning's importance, the distance and isolation's fear and desperation. The lyrics portray some mature themes and feelings of loss and desperation, which might not be suitable for young children. Yet, there is no use of explicit language, violence, or drug references in the song, which makes it acceptable for a general audience with parental guidance.
