I think I'll just leave it to your imagination what this song is about, although if you don't get it you're either not listening closely or you're lying. I won't bore you with the details of my creative process, but suffice it to say that I've done my share of research on this topic and feel quite comfortable singing enthusiastically about it.
On a serious note though there's some truth to the "so lost" line. This was written during the pandemic and maybe I was trying the be a bit humorous, but like many I too was feeling lost and doing everything I could to keep my spirits up. Writing this song lightened my mood and allowed me a chance to have some fun too. I wrote it on ukulele which is a great way to learn an instrument!

Lyrics
So Lost words and music by Rob Birdwell
I can almost feel your love
I can almost feel
I can almost feel your love
I can almost feel…
I feel so lost
like I’m going through motions all the time
I feel so lost
like the only way to hold you is in my mind
will I go blind?
you activate my imagination
but all I feel is a simulation
wondering if the bird I’m building is gonna fly
now I’m left with my heart in my hand
a lonely sailor on the sea, a one-man band
oh tell me I’m a fool or show me that you understand (I’m so lost...)
I can almost feel your love
I can almost feel
I can almost feel your love
I can almost feel…
I feel so lost
like the cake I baked got left out in the rain
I feel so lost
like I’ll never see your smiling face again
so I pretend
you activate my imagination
but all I feel is a simulation
wondering if the bird I’m building is gonna fly
now I’m left with my heart in my hand
a lonely sailor on the sea, a one-man band
oh tell me I’m a fool or show me that you understand (I’m so lost...)
I can almost feel your love
I can almost feel…
I feel so lost...
