Disconnected
Carson Elliott Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Distracted every single day now
Don't think about it, let your hair down
I'm down to run away till midnight
But don't forget about the last time
I came home unannounced
And you fell to the ground
With my arms round your jacket
It's hard to escape it
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Disconnected, ooh
I just want to feel alive without you, baby
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Everyone's caught up in the past while
I'm tryin' to figure out my plan now, ooh
I've never figured out the right time
To let you know how hard that I've tried
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Disconnected, ooh
I just want to feel alive without you, baby
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
I came home unannounced
And you fell to the ground
With my arms round your jacket
It's hard to escape it
I came home unannounced
And you fell to the ground
With my arms round your jacket
It's hard to escape it
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Disconnected, ooh




I just want to feel alive without you, baby
Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)

Line by Line Meaning

Distracted every single day now
I am always preoccupied nowadays


Don't think about it, let your hair down
Forget about it, take it easy


I'm down to run away till midnight
I'm willing to escape with you till midnight


But don't forget about the last time
Remember the previous incident


I came home unannounced
I returned home without informing


And you fell to the ground
And you collapsed


With my arms round your jacket
While I was holding your jacket


It's hard to escape it
It's difficult to get away from it


Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Feeling disconnected, please reconnect me


I just want to feel alive without you, baby
I desire to experience life without you, darling


Everyone's caught up in the past while
Everybody is stuck in the past


I'm tryin' to figure out my plan now, ooh
I'm currently attempting to decide my next move


I've never figured out the right time
I've never determined the perfect moment


To let you know how hard that I've tried
To express how much effort I've put in


I came home unannounced
I returned home without informing


And you fell to the ground
And you collapsed


With my arms round your jacket
While I was holding your jacket


Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Feeling disconnected, please reconnect me


I just want to feel alive without you, baby
I desire to experience life without you, darling


Disconnected, plug me back in please (Oh)
Feeling disconnected, please reconnect me
