You hear my cry, lover of mine
No tear in the eye or fear in my mind
The forest is thick and you don't recognize
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Need more people to be satisfied
No fear of a God and no prayer for the night
Come into our minds and you rush through our lives
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
Youngest fire, you decide
You decide what is right
Youngest fire, who decides?
We decide what is right
Near yet so far
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
No tear in the eye or fear in my mind
The forest is thick and you don't recognize
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Need more people to be satisfied
No fear of a God and no prayer for the night
Come into our minds and you rush through our lives
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
Youngest fire, you decide
You decide what is right
Youngest fire, who decides?
We decide what is right
Near yet so far
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)

I think it's about the lure of cheating.
A new lover "rushes" into the lives of you and your partner. "Parting your lips" for an illicit kiss makes you feel "awake and unreal, off to nowhere," so that your cheating affair feels like the only important thing in your life.
But this temporary bliss really is "off to nowhere" good, it's all a delusion: "the only thing you've got, you know you're better off without."
Still, you surrender to the passion anyway ("Youngest fire, you decide") and mess up your life: "Near yet so far, isn't it?"
