Keep Us Connected
"Keep Us Connected" was a song performed by Nyota Uhura when USS Enterprise hit a subspace fold in 2259. In it, she lamented her loneliness and resolve to be the glue holding everyone else together. (SNW: "Subspace Rhapsody").
Lyrics
A pattern repeating
I find myself here all alone
I know
I'll pick up the pieces
Repair what is broken alone
I know
Memories etched in my mind
Of mom and dad
A cool big brother
I would idolize
So full of laughter
And I could trust in the four of us
They flew away
Nothing to indicate
Calamity
All so young and alive
Ohh
They ruptured into a
Million shards of light
And none of them would survive
How come everywhere
That I go, I'm solo?
Am I at my best unaccompanied?
My whole life has been
"Fix this" and "Save you"
I'll light the path
And keep us connected
My fabric is woven
With love and loss
I was just a cadet
When we met
Hemmer's belief in me
Changed my life
I found my place
And said goodbye
I absorb all the pain, mm-hmm
I hear everyone's voice calling my name
Building systems, I strengthen ties that bind
So no one has to be alone
How come everywhere
That I go, I'm solo?
Am I at my best unaccompanied?
My whole life has been
"Fix this" and "Save you"
I'll light the path
And keep us connected
The pattern's repeating
Guiding and teaching me
I know
I know
Listen for signals
I'm here
You are reaching me
Come home
Everywhere I go
I'm good with solo
At my best, I have
Everything I need
My whole life has been
"Fix this" and "Save you"
That's what I do
I keep us connected
I keep us connected
