We wrote Disconnected about shutting off the world and just being alone with the person you love. One of my favorite lyrics from the song is tune out the static sound to the city that never sleeps, here in the moment on the dark side of the screen...

Lyrics[]

Oh oh oh

Luke:
Life's a tangled web of cellphone calls and hashtag
i-dont-know's
And you, you're so caught up
In all the blinking lights and dial tones

I admit I'm a bit of a victim in the worldwide system too
But I find my sweet escape
When I'm alone with you
Tune out the static sound
Of the city that never sleeps
Here in the moment
On the dark side of the screen

Luke and Calum:
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favorite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we're so disconnected
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
(Luke: We get so disconnected)
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Luke:
Hands around my waist
You're counting up the hills across the sheets
And I'm a falling star
A glimmer lighting up these cotton streets

I admit I'm a bit of a fool for playing by their rules
But I find my sweet escape
When I'm alone with you
Turn down the static sound
Of the city that never sleeps
Here in the moment
On the dark side of the screen
(Michael: hey)

Luke and Calum:
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favorite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we're so disconnected

Calum:
Turn off the radio (oh)
Those late night TV shows (oh)
Hang up the telephone
And just be here with me
Turn off the radio (oh)
Those late night TV shows (oh)
Hang up the telephone
And just be here with me

Calum and Luke:
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favorite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we're so disconnected

I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favorite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we're so disconnected
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
