Crosstalk
Lost Connections: Crosstalk's Tale
Lyrics
I have been here only to move you
I have been present here solely to have an impact on you
And move, you did, away
And you responded by moving away
Somewhere there's a signal, a voice on the phone
There is a signal, a voice on the phone somewhere
Telling you, maybe you're wrong
Telling you that perhaps you are mistaken
I wish I'd paid my dues so much sooner than this
I regret not having experienced difficulties earlier in life
For I am too, old to be broken
Because now I feel too old to endure heartbreak
I guess it doesn't matter where you are when it hits
It seems irrelevant where you are when the impact occurs
It's only who's left standing alone
What matters is who remains standing alone
Somewhere on this station there's crosstalk
There is interference or conflicting communication on this station
My circuits are bleeding, my channels are crossed
My emotional state is disturbed, my connections are confused
I don't understand where you belong
I am uncertain about where you fit or belong
If it's not next to me
If it's not beside me
The thing I fear the most, the thing gnawing inside
The thing that I dread the most, the internal struggle
Is that I'll miss, something's gone wrong
Is the fear of missing something that has gone awry
The baluster was cracked, at the base of the wall
A structural support was damaged at the foundation of the wall
I guess somehow, I tripped the alarm
It seems I unintentionally triggered an alarm
Somewhere on this station there's crosstalk
There is interference or conflicting communication on this station (repeated)
My circuits are bleeding, my channels are crossed
My emotional state is disturbed, my connections are confused (repeated)
I don't understand where you belong
I am uncertain about where you fit or belong (repeated)
If it's not next to me
If it's not beside me (repeated)
