About This Track

'Stateless' by U2 is a 2000 track from the album 'The Million Dollar Hotel (Music From The Motion Picture)'. The lyrics sketch a bleak, rootless state of being, returning to the refrain that the speaker has “no home in this world”. Home is replaced by impersonal forces, and a love that feels unresolved, with the idea of colour and sunshine drained away. The song also frames identity in stark terms, collapsing distinctions into a harsh, prize-like logic, before the excerpt cuts off mid-thought.

"Stateless" is a track by U2, from the album The Million Dollar Hotel (Music From The Motion Picture), released 13th March 2000. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Stateless

I got no home in this world

Just gravity, luck and time

I've got no home in this world

Just you and you are not mine

Stateless

Fateless

Stateless

(Shut you cold)

There are no colors in your eye

There's no sunshine in your sky

There's no race, only the prize

There is no tomorrow, only tonight

Oh, Stateless

Oh, what's the difference?

You can cover the world with your thumb thought

Still so big, so bright, so beautiful

Weightless

Stateless

Push down on me

Push, down on me

Push

Awake now

A weight, get down on me

Your weight, down

Be your weight on, go down on me

Be the heavy hand, the mortal sand

Be the weight, heart, go get down on me

Stateless

Weightless

Hateless

Hey, bliss
