I tell you one of the, one of the most common things that people say to me as a celebrity type, when they get to know me
They say some version of, "Gosh, you're just like a regular person"
But why wouldn't I be?
There's nobody who's not a regular person
Except maybe Michael Jackson wasn't (ooh ooh)
If you get famous when you are too young you can be kinda weird
But, even Michael Jackson was he weirder then me, probably not, just different weirdness
Was he weirder then you, probably not, just different weirdness
And so there's something connecting this weirdness and self-esteem issue with a massive problem we are having in the country right now
Massive problem

[Chorus]
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
People are so freakin' lonely (ey, eyyyy)

And it's not entirely because they're not with people
Because they are
They are with people
How many of you are having a crisis of loneliness right now, tell me how many of you are feeling lonely in a way you have never felt before
Like just a whole new level of loneliness
Because of loneliness
I think you are also seeing more addiction, right
One way to make the pain go away
How many of you watch this to feel because it makes you feel less lonely?
[Chorus]
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
People are so freakin' lonely (ey, eyyyy)

Now I tell you that you know I have people in my house, so I’m not like physically alone
But I’ve started to watch umm I guess what you would call POV of point of view video in which I want somebody's face looking into the camera and talking to you
I can't watch interviews anymore, because if I watch an interview I’m watching two people talking to each other and I’m not part of it
But if I watch one person talking to me
I could probably even watch one of those make up videos because it's just somebody putting on their make-up and just talking to you
I would totally watch them and it’s nothing to do with make-up

[Chorus]
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
Loneliness, the loneliness problem is now the epidemic
People are so freakin' lonely (eee)
People are so freakin' lonely (ey, eyyyy)

[Instrumental bridge, Guitar solo]

I think there is something happening, that's bigger than what we understand
Because there’s a second epidemic, and I think it is connected
