Disconnected Lyrics
Something's crept in under our door
Silent, soaking through the floor
Pinching like a stone in my shoe
Some chemical that's breaking down the glue
That's been binding me to you
[Chorus]
Ooh I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been wrong so many times
We walk in circles, the blind leading the blind
[Verse 2]
Well, I thought that love watched over this house
But you're boarding up the windows now
We've been leaning on each other so hard
Tied so tight we wound up miles apart
Making simple things so hard
[Chorus]
Ooh, I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles, the blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
But I've been wrong and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles, the blind leading the blind
I see the landscape change before my eyes
The features I've been navigating by
No, nothing looks the way it did before
I don't know where to look or what to look for
[Chorus]
I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles, the blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
But I've been wrong and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles, the blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now

On the band’s website, Tim said:
I wrote this when I was driving up the west coast of America. I suspect it may have had its origins in some argument or other with my wife, but I can’t remember! But since that no doubt passed very quickly, I think the song has quite a jaunty feel to it, not too weighed down by its lyrical content! I think it’s quite Beatles-y in that respect – sad words with a very ‘happy’ melody. I like the imagery of a relationship being like a decrepit house, especially the line about boarding up the windows.
I think I only finished the song because I stumbled across the rough sketch in the studio one day and thought I’d have a quick listen – just at that moment Jesse came in and said “What’s that? I love it!”
