A possibility.

: I do think "lonely" is more accurate in the context of the song as it obviously refers to the state of mind and not physically "alone", but this is my opinion. :).

...and as the loneliness bites...
I believe the actual lyric is:
"e ci si trova sempre più soli
a questa età non sai... non sai
ma quante corse ma quanti voli"
...so it's not referring to a specific "we" but to anyone, all of us.
The above suggestion is also aiming to preserve the rhyme ("soli/voli"), assuming that "voli" is going to come out as flights.
