[Verse A] Swiping through the "happy days" of strangers on my screen While I check the pasta, cooking for a party of one I've got a feeling, maybe one in every two of us Is just like me, taming the silence of another lonely night [Pre-Chorus A] Inside this crystal capsule that we call "independence" We are floating freely, drifting in a quiet solitude [Chorus A] Oh, this world is just a crowd of lonely singularities Even you, sitting right beside me, feel a million miles away But when we're at the edge of night, looking at the same old moon These disconnected dots begin to look like constellations in the sky It doesn't have to be "true love," or anything so grand I just want to believe in the warmth of our eyes meeting for a moment [Verse B] This strength I found to live my life without depending on a soul Sometimes it turns into a blade, cold and sharp against my chest I’ll never find the breath to ask, "Is there someone to spend the night with me?" Through these helpless nights we find sometimes, we keep on walking our separate ways [Pre-Chorus B] Afraid to let our colors bleed and mix with someone else Measuring the safety net with a ruler in our hands [Bridge] We are all alone, and that’s the truth No one else can live this life for me But being all alone by yourself Is not the same as being lonely! [Chorus B] We are works in progress, and we'll stay that way forever Belonging to no one, free to go as far as we can see And that is why, if by some chance, our reaching hands should ever touch It would be more than destiny—a miracle in its purest form Through these helpless nights we find sometimes, we keep on walking our separate ways [Outro] Counting all the distant lights glowing from the windows far away I wonder if you're out there, counting all the same lights too
