Written by Val Emmich

lyrics

I never thought
that you and I
could have anything to do with each other
I saw your hypocrisy,
and if anything,
I wanted to blow your cover

But here in the flesh,
your flaws start to show
Hating you feels so much harder

I’ve been so alone
with nowhere to go
I was shivering cold,
but you brought a glow

I was certain that darkness had won
That there was no one
who could light me up
I was stuck
Had enough
I had lost all direction
But now this connection
You and me
Maybe we’re electric

I had a thought
if I just played the game,
my truth no one would discover
But the bricks started crumbling
I left them tumbling
Tired of protecting another

I felt so alone
till you picked up the phone
You found me so low
Saw me lose all control
and fold

I was certain that darkness had won
That there was no one
who could light me up
I was stuck
Had enough
I had lost all direction
But now this connection
You and me
Maybe we’re electric

Made so many mistakes
A million a day
I tried to scream
But I still wasn’t seen
I want to start new
(The power is out)
I want to come clean to you
(It’s the middle of the night)
I’m starting to feel
(It doesn’t make sense)
Maybe magic is real
(I think I see a light)

I was certain that darkness had won
That there was no one
who could light me up
I was stuck
Had enough
I had lost all direction
But now this connection
You and me
Maybe we’re electric

You and I all night
