Lost in Translation – Alisa

Once you know me you’ll know all there is to know
I’m a transparent creature from head to toe
I dropped some seeds not meant to grow
It didn’t take long for you to come close

If you see me in my crazy
You’ve made it far
Made it through all the auditions
Got the best friend part
You say ‘can we talk？ ‘
I’d rather not

Don’t wanna get lost
We don’t have to make this complicated
Lost
How did we wind up in this situation
I wanted us to never change
But here we go again
I wanted you to stay
But as a forever friend
Lost
Losing friends to love, lost in translation

We liked being alone, didn’t like crowds
Only with you, I say my dark thoughts aloud
You’d bring me up when I was way down
And when it was your turn, I’d be your clown

But now you’re acting weird
You’re different from at the start
I don’t like where this is going
Don’t reopen my scars
You say ‘can we talk？ ‘
But I’d rather not

Don’t wanna get lost
We don’t have to make this complicated
Lost
How did we wind up in this situation
I wanted us to never change
But here we go again
I wanted you to stay
But as a forever friend
Lost
Losing friends to love, lost in translation

You’re fading
I never wanted to push you away
Those three little words I wish you didn’t say
If only you could take it back and call it a mistake
Maybe we’d be okay
But you can’t now

And we’re lost
We didn’t have to make this complicated
Lost
How did we wind up in this situation
I wanted us to never change
But here we go again
I wanted you to stay
But as a forever friend
Lost
Losing friends to love, lost in translation
