about
This track has real vulnerability. It deals with self doubt, teenage angst, lack of confidence, isolation, youth, hope, striving to connect.
lyrics
V1
Lonely,
in a crowd but we're all alone,
I'm not the only
One pretending to be lost in my phone
Lost touch
With my people who are one tap away, I need them
So much
Just don't know how to say.
Ooh-ee-ooh I need you
Ooh-ee-ooh I need you
Chorus
I need to be connected, I need it so much
My soul has been neglected, needs human touch
I feel so disconnected, all I want is you
I'm tired of being projected, not really seen
Of doing what's expected, alive on my screen
I'm scared of being rejected, but I know what I must do...
V2
I was drowning
Didn't know I was surrounded by love
Always frowning
Pushing people away, I've had enough
Look up
See all the people, the world is packed, I need to
Wake up
Now's the time I must interact.
Ooh-ee-ooh I need you
Ooh-ee-ooh I need you
Chorus
I need to be connected, I need it so much
My soul has been neglected, needs human touch
I feel so disconnected, all I want is you
I'm tired of being projected, not really seen
Of doing what's expected, alive on my screen
I'm scared of being rejected, but I know what I must do...
To not be lonely
Oh so lonely
I'm not so lonely
Not lonely
Lonely...
