[Verse 1: Sampha]
I've been doing lots of questioning (questioning)
Like "what am I investing in?" (investing in)
The silence getting deafening
You should be the medicine
Now what's it gonna take for me to change me
Before it's too late in this daydream
Maybe let someone embrace me
Before the aliens erase me

[Verse 2: Sampha]
Now I don't wanna be this lonely
But I don't wanna see my homies
I don't wanna be this roaming ghost
Didn't want to gеt this deep involved
I've been decеiving myself almost lately
I've been avoiding your calls like it pays me
I've been trapped up in this room with a daydream
Maybe I should've just let you embrace me

[Chorus: Laura Groves]
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout my and me
Instead of we and free

[Verse 3: Sampha]
And it's just the way it is
We need each other
And I've been fighting it
Like you're not my brother
I don't know where my enemy is
Looking in the mirror, there he is
A butterfly talking in the mist
Whispering the armor is a myth
[Verse 4: Sampha]
And I don't need you close (that's a lie)
And I don't you no (that's a lie)
And I don't need to know (that's a lie)
I just wanna be alone (that's a lie)

[Verse 5: Sampha]
If I share these problems might get multiplied
Cause you're gonna try and solve 'em
And I don't know why
Cause you're gonna try and solve 'em
And I won't comply
You must have been talking to that butterfly

[Chorus: Laura Groves & Sampha]
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout my and me
Instead of we and free
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout them and me
Instead of family
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Being just me
Being just me
