Hi-Five
Angel Olsen Lyrics

I feel so lonesome I could cry
I am overcome with loneliness and sadness that it brings me to tears.

But instead I'll pass the time
Rather than dwelling on my loneliness and sadness, I will simply distract myself.

Sittin' lonely with somebody lonely too
Although it may seem counterintuitive, finding companionship with someone who is also lonely can be comforting.

Well, there's nothin' in the world I'd rather do
Given my current state of loneliness, I cannot think of anything more appealing than finding solace in companionship.

Now tell me if you don't feel this way
I am curious if you, too, are experiencing similar feelings of loneliness and the desire for companionship.

But all I want, all I ever need
Above all else, what I crave and require is a connection with someone else.

Is someone out there who believes
I am searching for someone who not only understands my feelings but also shares them.

Sometimes believe
There are moments when I have hope and optimism regarding finding that connection with another person.

Not always believe
However, there are also times when I struggle with doubt and skepticism in regards to finding companionship.

Sometimes believe
Nevertheless, I am not completely devoid of hope and do believe at times that I will find someone.

Now we don't have to take it to extreme
Although I crave companionship, I do not need it to the point of taking extreme actions that may be harmful or unwise.

We'll keep our hands, our legs even our lips apart
Although we may form a connection, we can still maintain boundaries to ensure that it's healthy and appropriate.

But I'm giving you my heart, my heart
Even though we will keep certain boundaries, I am still willing and open to giving you my heart, my emotions, and my feelings.

Are you giving me your heart, your heart?
I am curious if you are also willing and open to sharing your heart, emotions, and feelings with me.

Are you lonely too?
I am wondering if you are also experiencing feelings of loneliness and looking for companionship.

Are you lonely too?
I am hopeful that you are also experiencing loneliness because it may create a common bond between us.

High five, so am I
If you are indeed experiencing loneliness, then we can connect on that level, hence a high-five - a universal sign of celebration and unity.

All of your life
Throughout your whole existence, you may have struggled with feelings of loneliness.

Stuck in time
You may be feeling trapped in your current state of loneliness, unable to move forward or out of it.

I'm stuck, too
I can empathize with how you feel because I, too, am experiencing feelings of being trapped and unable to move forward.

I'm stuck with you, you, you, you
However, even though we are both experiencing feelings of loneliness and being stuck in time, we still have each other to connect with and support one another.

I do, I do, I do
I am committed to forming a connection with you and finding solace in our shared experiences of loneliness.
