The latest power-pop gem from the hit factory (a.k.a. my bedroom). Working title: “Disconnected.”

DISCONNECTED

I’ve been staring a hole into myself
Living in a world with no one else
Playing out scenes inside my head
Toiling over words left unsaid

Like your phone, I’m disconnected
Overdue, thoughts uncollected
My one-track mind is a breakdown lane
Blown-out tires and rusted frame
But don’t you give up on me

I may be out, but I’m not down
At least not when you’re around
Come what may & what might have been
You know I’ll always be your friend
Yeah, I’ll always be your friend

I’ve been chained up inside this cave
Your shadow danced in the light of the flames
You stole my heart but never broke the rules
No I never was much for playing it cool

Like your phone, I’m disconnected
Overdue, thoughts uncollected
My one-track mind is a breakdown lane
Blown-out tires and rusted frame
But don’t you give up on me

I may be out, but I’m not down
At least not when you’re around
So olly olly oxen free, you know you’ll always be
Yeah, you’ll always be my friend
