Two vocalists perform a song about self-doubt and isolation. The piece explores themes of seeking help while needing solitude, set to a lyrical performance that captures the tension between wanting connection and needing time alone.
There I sit, just waiting for the phone to ring. I find myself Self-censoring, not saying what I should. Well, who am I anyway? It seems to me I'd always say a whole lot of everything. Like everything would do me good. When did I? How did I just let go?
I've closed my eyes to what I've been searching for. All of this seeking is making me weak. Oh, I need a little time. I'm out there looking for help like I can't help myself. Oh, I need a little time alone.
Here I am, I stand before a crowded room. But knowing that all too soon you all go away. But while you're here, I'm taking flight.
It happens mostly every night, and it's just insane, oh, how you He's my pain.
But when did I, how did I just let go?
You said myself, but I feel like a drowning soul. And all of this seeking is making me weak. Oh, I need a little time alone. I'm out there looking for help like I can't find a way. Can't help myself. Oh, I need a little time alone. There's a time. Yes, there's times for running. Oh, there's times when you just when you just run out. Lord, I just need one minute to keep my mind, to keep my heart in heaven. Oh, believe me when I say I'm gonna shout it out when I find it all for myself. Oh, yes, I will. Oh, yes, I will. I need a little time alone. Oh, all of this evil is making me so weak. I need, I need, I need just a little time alone. I'm out there looking for help, and I don't know how to help myself. Oh, I need a little time alone. I need a little time. Oh yes. A little time. Oh yes. A little time. Oh, won't you let me have a little time alone? Sometimes you gotta ask yourself, baby, do you need a little time alone?
A little time alone.
Oh, alone.
Do you need just a little time? Oh, a little time alone.
