Can't Connect
Planet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bright eyes
I'll deal with you in another life
A new day
My reasons still won't change

I know its hard to find
A warmer view towards your kind
A curled up note unfolds
Unravels to your friend next door

I got a feeling that we won't connect
Don't wanna settle for second best
This is a feeling that I won't forget
Twisted in another's bed

Sunrise
It lines me up with the setting sun
Cold stays
She lies with me when you're away

I know it's hard to find
A warmer view towards your kind
A curled up note unfolds
Unravels to your friend next door

I got a feeling that we won't connect
Don't wanna settle for second best
This is a feeling that I won't forget
Twisted in another's bed

And now your fire it burns in me
Aligns with lonely and weak
You slide into my head
And now the locks have shut us down
These words come pouring out your mouth
But I don't wanna hear
No I don't want you near

I got a feeling that you won't face
This is a feeling that you can't fake

I got a feeling that we won't connect
Don't wanna settle for second best
This is a feeling that I won't forget
Twisted in another's bed

I got a feeling that we won't connect
Don't wanna settle for second best




This is a feeling that I won't forget
Twisted in another's bed

Overall Meaning

The song "Can't Connect" by Planet touches on themes of loneliness, longing, and failed relationships. The first two lines of the song, "Bright eyes, I'll deal with you in another life" suggests a desire to move on from a difficult relationship in a future life. The chorus, "I got a feeling that we won't connect, Don't wanna settle for second best, This is a feeling that I won't forget, Twisted in another's bed," implies a relationship that is not fulfilling and is causing emotional pain.


The lyrics highlight the struggle to find a connection with someone who is not right for you. The lines, "I know it's hard to find, A warmer view towards your kind," suggest an awareness of the fact that the singer may need to change their approach towards relationships or the type of person they are seeking. Furthermore, the lines "And now your fire it burns in me, Aligns with lonely and weak," indicate that the singer is struggling with the emotions brought on by the relationship, which has left them feeling vulnerable and isolated.


The song is open to interpretation and can be viewed as a reflection of someone feeling lost and disconnected from others. It is a relatable theme, as everyone has experienced or will experience feelings of loneliness and disconnection at some point in their lives.
