I am so tired; seeing purple
3am and I’m thinking of you
It’s time I retired; rolling in circles
What the fuck did we do?
Because I should be sleeping
But I’ll be far from breathing
When you finally start believing
That losing you is the only reason why I’m grieving
And you can’t say that you didn’t
That you didn’t feel it too
Maybe if we weren’t human
We could dismiss the truth
What we had was more than safe
What we had was real
I’ve still got your love to chase
And you’ve got mine to steal
Cover distance, cover...

It’s rather unlike you to call me baby
It’s more than likely you choose to call me crazy
Underneath us
Right and left now maybe
Never silent
But virtues are hazy
Now I’ve learned to trust
This feeling of absence and waiting
The place in which I’ve begun debating

We say we’re beautiful
But we’ve got the most grotesque intentions
And we carry ourselves so most careful
As though the great man’s idea was our invention
Sick and twisted, lost but sly
Settle in to your sunken lies
And try to alleviate the pain that cries...

Like a wave
Pain comes over us and
We are wrapped up so tightly
Within the manner of neediness
The manner of helplessness
Thinking things like
If I had one wish
Feeling things like
I can’t possibly get through this
From whence does a new day come?

When you
Carry on
As we are expected to
As we should do
As the world has all done before
Be thankful that you can fathom Love
Be thankful that you can feel
Rejoice because you have known Love
Rejoice because that Love you knew was real
Hold your head...
