Lyrics

Virginia Tech

[Intro]

Don't want to lose

My connection

[Verse 1]

Trying to trace

My direction

Give it some space

My direction

Do as I do

My direction

Don't want to lose

My direction

[Chorus]

Good as I got

Thinkin' the thoughts

Thinkin' of you

Out of the blue

Breaking the knot

Marking the spot

My direction

[Verse 2]

Trying to mend

My depression

Seeing the end

My depression

I'm blurrin' the sight

My depression

Try as I might

My depression

[Chorus]

Good as I got

Thinkin' the thoughts

Thinkin' of you

Out of the blue

Breaking the knot

Marking the spot

My depression

[Outro]

Don't want to lose

My connection
