The Observer

Always a lover
Always a friend
Looking for connection
Alone in my bed

This room feels so crowded
It's all in my head
Wish that you could see me
But you can't see past it
And I can't be someone new
You may not get me but I get you

And it's all the same
Circles drawn in the sky
Outwardly happy face
A shoulder to cry on
But I'm still alone
The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression
Will it bring me closer to you?
I look in your eyes
You look right on through
Am I doomed to be
The observer of what
I can't reach?

Always the old soul
Give me some advice
You say that I know you
That must feel nice

And If I blink twice
Will I disappear
When I can't see myself right
Who's there to bridge the distance?
When my thoughts come late night
What a lonely existence

And it's still the same
Circles drawn in the sky
Outward happy face
A shoulder to cry on
But I'm still alone
The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression
Will it bring me closer to you?
I look in your eyes
You look right on through
Am I doomed just to be
The observer of what
I can't reach?

I can't reach
I can't reach you
I can't reach
I can't reach you

I can't reach
I can't reach you
I can't reach
I can't reach you

And it's all the same
Circles drawn in the sky
Outwardly happy face
A shoulder to cry on
But I'm still alone
The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression
Will it bring me closer to you?
I look in your eyes
You look right on through
Am I doomed to be
The observer of what
I can't reach?
