lyrics
I watch all the people
As they pass me by
But they never notice
Or blink an eye
I see the fragments
Of a hundred different lives
As I sit in silence
Hidden in plain sight
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
Came here to start over
Free from all I've known
Lose all these thoughts
That aren't my own
But all that's resulted
Is feeling more alone
So much for trying
To leave you back home
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
I always somehow kept time
With the world spinning round
Now there's just potential
Ever since I left our town
And I'm stuck in a world
Where there's nothing to be found
I'm reminded of you
And you appear in the crowd
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
As they pass me by
But they never notice
Or blink an eye
I see the fragments
Of a hundred different lives
As I sit in silence
Hidden in plain sight
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
Came here to start over
Free from all I've known
Lose all these thoughts
That aren't my own
But all that's resulted
Is feeling more alone
So much for trying
To leave you back home
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
I always somehow kept time
With the world spinning round
Now there's just potential
Ever since I left our town
And I'm stuck in a world
Where there's nothing to be found
I'm reminded of you
And you appear in the crowd
Feel like I'm in
A different dimension
Just an observer
Who feels no connection
To this new world
I find myself in
Wish I could break out
Of this introspection
