lyrics

when i left, it all left
when you left, i felt
absolutely nothing.

see, i am this unborn child
and you’ve got a fullgrown smile
we mutually envy.

when i see you so ohh-okay.
i see me so unwell.
i might not know why
(but see, it came back
you came back)

so here i am
every sad line. emotion
every cut to your arms. is
when our auras cross haunting
i shoot up misery. me.

i guess i go what i want
i missed your loving touch
but am i good enough?
and are you faking please don’t be f…
are you faking it?

—

here i am, here we are
you came back i feel
absolutely absolutely absolutely

see how sad i am? well
i’ve really been through hell
and i need you.

when i’m so ohh-okay
i seem so unwell
i might know why
(but just keep on
keepin’ on and guessing.)

so here i am
ever shallow day. why are you
every “i’m sorry”/”i love you” here
when we’re this deep in loving
i won’t ever leave. me?

i know what i got is it.
i guess i missed the boat.
never god never good enough
and are you fucking faking this?
don’t be fucking faking this.
