this song has meant a lot to me for awhile. written in my bedroom in new york in 2017. kept thinking it might go on an album
lyrics
Forgotten what it's like to feel love
Happens too often , what is wrong with me
Pretty sure I'm not the only one
There's a saying there
We're all islands
Wake up and fall back asleep
Check my phone
No one is ever known
Marketing the best parts of myself
Wish to be someone else
And the truth is
I think sometimes I struggle with the difference
Between love and attention
And honestly
I don't think I'm the only one
And I ask myself
Constantly
What is real love, what is real love look like
