Trapt – Disconnected (Out of Touch) Lyrics 17 years ago
Correct lyrics:
You never listen to me, You cannot look me in the eyes
and I have struggled to see, why its so easy to push me aside
I no longer believe that you were ever on my side
How could you know what I need? When I am the last thing on your mind

(Chorus)
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
So disconnected, go through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, You got me hanging by a thread
So disconnected, When will this cycle end?

You don't really know me
I don't think you ever even tried
We're on the same routine and still you never have the time
Who do you want me to be? and do you want me in your life?
I feel so incomplete, you left me too far behind

(Chorus)
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
So disconnected, go through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, You got me hanging by a thread
So disconnected, When will this cycle end?

It's too hard to just move on
It's easier said then done (x3)

(Chorus)
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
Too out of touch out of touch
to touch you
So disconnected, go through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, You got me hanging by a thread
So disconnected, When will this cycle end?


I rather think this song is about a relationship or a friendship in which one of the partners turned away but never really left the other. So the relation turned to a kind of loveless routine ("We're on the same routine and still you never have the time") because no-one of the two wants to be the one to end the relation/friendship. ("When will this cycle end?") But by living this kind of not-realtin (or however you like to call it) the lyrical I gets quite bitter and begins to doubt if there was ever a real relationship between the two.

Trapt – Black Rose Lyrics 17 years ago
I'd rather think, she is depressive and he tries (in vain) to help her live again. Like he says "You were always where the sun could never go
I never wanted you to have to be alone
But I couldn't find a way to help you grow"
I think this song is about his decision to leave her, because he finally understood that her depression brings him down, too ("I tried to save you from yourself I felt every high and low
now the lows have drowned the highs away now there's no where else to go") and that he can't help her anyway. He really tried to help her but he never reached her so he has to leave, before she hurts him too much. ("Black rose your thorns are cutting into me for the last time
Black rose I watched your petals wilt away I couldn't bring you back to life") It's like he suffers from her depression nearly as much as she does, because he can't understand why she can't open herself even to him. ("I'm not the one who hurt you So why are you so scared") So it's the best for him to leave her.
On the other hand I think he feels guilty - because he tries so often to explain that he tried to help her. He just wasn't able to. He don't seem to be quite sure if it's really the best to leave her. So he made himself suffer again and again to find the strength to make up his mind. ("Every time I held you I knew that it would hurt
Only through the pain I could find a way to learn"
