Navigating the complex terrain of emotional disconnect, this lyrical composition explores the anguish of unreciprocated affection. The protagonist finds herself in a relationship where her emotional investment is not mirrored by her partner, leading to feelings of invisibility and insignificance. The recurring question "How are you so detached?" underscores her bafflement at her partner's emotional indifference. The lyrics evoke a sense of desolation as she grapples with the stark contrast between being 'everything' when present and 'nothing' when absent in her partner's life. The metaphor of a 'red string', traditionally symbolizing destiny and connection, further emphasizes the perceived bond that she feels is not reciprocated. Overall, this song poignantly encapsulates the pain of one-sided love and emotional disconnection within a relationship.
Detached
Lyrics
I've been here for three nights
Forgetting what it used to be like
To sleep in and not hear you breathin
Your life is so easy to be in
If we could just freeze time
Pretend that you always have been mine
The second I leave you we're all done
Go back to pretending I'm no one
I'm wondering how
I'm everything
And then nothing
How are you so detached?
When I'm outta your sight I'm outta your mind
Forget what we had
From so in the present to stuck in the past
How are you so detached?
I don't wanna leave you tomorrow
'Cause when I leave you never follow
This object ain't permanent, is it?
'Cause when it's not there you don't miss it
Swear there was a red string
Connecting a piece of you to me
But I'm guessin I just misread that
I heard that can happen with contact
I'm wondering how
I'm everything
And then nothing
How are you so detached?
When I'm outta your sight I'm outta your mind
Forget what we had
From so in the present to stuck in the past
How are you so detached?
How are you so detached?
How are you so detached?
How are you so detached?
How are you so detached?
