about
I wrote this song in my family home, after spending an entire day watching tv on my laptop. Right as I felt my brain finish rotting and begin pouring out of my ears, the sun came in through my window and I could suddenly feel all of my precious minutes slipping away, stolen by my phone and my computer screen. My generation has a habit of sacrificing and undermining the power of physical touch and human connection. I am the person who strikes up a conversation with every single nice looking old person on the subway, and I was losing sight of that. This is a song that mourns all the things I would’ve missed out on had I not come to that realization.
Also, I just felt a bit lonely that day.
lyrics
People make me nervous Especially in malls
They sprint by skinny models That are nearly ten feet tall
Highways make me fidget There are way too many cars And I’m sure I’d like the drivers If we pulled aside to talk
But from my window,
They are just a bumper and a light And I can’t see their eyes
I get my food delivered
And my books sent to my door And I don’t talk to people anymore
Barstools make me sweaty
When there’s someone I don’t know I probably look so stupid
Climbing up there on my own
And the man behind the bar
Is probably lovely with his kids And I am just the ass
Who didn’t order a drink
I kissed a girl from the internet And her lips were cold
But I don’t talk to people anymore
I get my food delivered
And my books sent to my door And I don’t talk to people anymore
I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met
I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met
I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met
I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met I miss everyone I’ve never met
