Age of Isolation Lyrics by The Mommyheads

Age of Isolation

2021

There’s a spot on the ceiling
That I must have missed
If I look long enough I start to fall
Into my own abyss
Is it the paint bleeding through?
Just a color from another time
A choice that someone made
Before they changed their mind
Temporary’s better then nothing
Shallow is better than dry
Artificial’s better then hollow
If we’re connected, why ask why?
Liked is better than rejected
Shamed is better than ignored
If all we get is stimulation
Then why aren’t we just getting bored?
Floating out in space
Surrounded by every face
I’ve ever known or ever seen
Looking for a droplet of dopamine
My resistance becomes immune
When our bodies are in tune
A serotonin imitation
Welcome to the Age of Isolation
The Age of Isolation
There’s a faucet in another room
Dripping with repetition
If I listen long enough
I can hear my own ambition
How did I get here?
Feel like a stranger from another time
Was it a conscious choice
Or did I just step out of line?
Why should this mean that much
This connection lost its meaning for us
When we can’t even touch
Caught in a vulture’s clutch
High above the rest of us
Perched upon a precipice
While we debate and we discuss
The loneliness is killing us
This connection has no meaning for us
When we can’t even touch
If I can’t tell if what I see is true
How do I get through to you?
Maybe I should just look away
And take a walk outside
