Self-Isolation
from Playoff Run by Playoff Run
lyrics
Never been good at saying how I feel
Never thought I'd get the chance to make this real
It's surreal...
Living at a distance when we're not to blame
Looking through a screen at you is not the same
It's so lame that being apart is the name of the game
There's not a lot of options when we're stuck in this situation
Trying to find love in a world of self-isolation
I could be the one you can't live without
Can't get close enough to ease your doubt
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
It's all running out
Never knew that calling you could feel this rough
Every time we talk, your voice is breaking up
It keeps breaking up
Wanna be there with you but I know I can't
You make me wanna risk my health to hold your hand
Don't wanna Stay-At-Home and wait
Months and weeks made up of days
Hours spent thinking of everything we'd do
If you wanted to escape this hell
We're separated by glass, each in our own cell
We’re plugged into machines, like we’re living in a simulation
Trying to find love in a world of self-isolation
I could be the one you can't live without
Can't get close enough to ease your doubt
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
It's all running out
I just want us to be together
I look at you and I want forever
Just tell me that I'm not crazy
That we'll be together someday
I could be the one you can’t live without
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
Never thought I'd get the chance to make this real
It's surreal...
Living at a distance when we're not to blame
Looking through a screen at you is not the same
It's so lame that being apart is the name of the game
There's not a lot of options when we're stuck in this situation
Trying to find love in a world of self-isolation
I could be the one you can't live without
Can't get close enough to ease your doubt
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
It's all running out
Never knew that calling you could feel this rough
Every time we talk, your voice is breaking up
It keeps breaking up
Wanna be there with you but I know I can't
You make me wanna risk my health to hold your hand
Don't wanna Stay-At-Home and wait
Months and weeks made up of days
Hours spent thinking of everything we'd do
If you wanted to escape this hell
We're separated by glass, each in our own cell
We’re plugged into machines, like we’re living in a simulation
Trying to find love in a world of self-isolation
I could be the one you can't live without
Can't get close enough to ease your doubt
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
It's all running out
I just want us to be together
I look at you and I want forever
Just tell me that I'm not crazy
That we'll be together someday
I could be the one you can’t live without
But timing is everything and everyone’s is running out
