Connect

Holding a glass, I strain to find the words

Your eyes scan the room; you wish you were somewhere else

There's no point in this exchange, I'm totally vacant

But I'm okay; life is fine either way

We don't always connect

It's okay if we don't sometimes

I understand if you don't care; I barely know what I'm saying

I should let you go before you have to ask

I should let you go

I should let you go

I don't find it hard to be alone

The void is so loud

Why do we talk at all?

I'm okay; life is fine

With or without you

I just want to know

When I'm around, do I bring you down?

Leave without saying goodbye

Was it better once I'd gone?

I'm okay

Life is fine with or without you

Sometimes I don't need to connect

I'm alright on my own

I'm fine

I'm okay

I don't feel like connecting

Maybe I will next time

Lonely days are long

Make you want to run

And find someone
