Something
Something Lyrics

Tonight is like space invaders
Tonight feels like a video game where everything is strange and unfamiliar

There is nothing at work
Work is unfulfilling and boring with no interesting projects

The faces have become like traffic
People's faces have blended together, just like cars in traffic

Multi-purpose conversation
Small talk that serves no real purpose

I stand like a lighthouse
I am a beacon of stability and direction amidst my own confusion

I have become a lighthouse
I have taken on the role of guiding others, even as I feel lost myself

But if we met we would exhaust this place
Our energy and intensity would be too much for this space to contain

And if you spoke then this world would short-circuit
Your words are so powerful that they could disrupt the very fabric of our reality

Say something
I want you to speak up and express yourself

Make it a direct hit
Say something that really hits me and resonates with me

Make me never forget
Say something that stays with me forever, something that changes me

I don't want to stand and compute
I don't want to be passive and disconnected, just going through the motions

I want days and weeks to burst out of you
I want you to be full of life and energy, bursting with experiences and stories to share

I am listening for dear life
I am listening with all my heart, desperate to connect and understand

I want you to talk like it's a breakthrough
I want you to speak with the passion and urgency of a major discovery or revelation
