Hello post-relationship
Nice to meet you
4 days was quite the break 'til we started talking, but for who's sake?
Still a separation, feigning reformation
The story of how far we'll go to care beyond our cataclysmic expiration date

Still talking, planning visits, I could get used to this
Mom found out and
I kinda broke down
Illusion tactics make me seeing you easier on my head

Goodnight's
Get home safe's
You'll soon see my face
This is the closest that we've ever been

When I arrive let's be friends, nothing more
But we laid exposed then regressed, our lips couldn't help it
Traveled by train, held my arm in the rain
Our vacation to our glorious past, wouldn't you say?

Don't question my ways
This was no mistake, I wanted to bring you back to me
And you felt the same
Deny it, but baby you had fed into everything

Calls came more often, excited to hear your voice again
A new routine as just friends

November 4th, second visit
No holding hands this time
We'll just eat up, watch sappy movies
Suddenly your body’s next to mine

You finally learned to like walking
Cleaned up your dishes while you worked
You thanked me, was that a kiss goodbye?
Remember, no holding hands this time

Calls came more often, we're talking for hours on end
Are you sure we're just friends?

Do you want me to change for you? I could give you 4 kids
Let’s get drunk, we’ll waste with the night too
Edge means nothing compared to you
I would never yell or fight, I'd bite my tongue, and don’t worry you'd always be right

I'd leave this school, maybe transfer to Trenton too
You can pick my best fit, just let me be with you
Just let me be with you

Thanksgiving, said you missed me
You wanted to try again, but that's hasty
And what if we failed after I said yes
I'm not letting you dismantle me again

You wanted me to text you first
Well, I'm hesitant
Look what happens when you don't respond
Guess you like keeping secrets
Only tell me what's convenient

Seems you dig the party scene
Kissing guys that aren't me
But you still keep my hoodie underneath the pillow where you sleep

Hello, old friend
How have you
Been quite some time since
Last confessions

You better off
And me, a mess
You said you'd help
Surprise, you didn't

Your night out
Left me paranoid
If you addressed it first
This wouldn’t be destroyed

You think we’re cast to
Worlds so foreign
Don't play your mind
I love you
...

Are you embarrassed or are you cringing?
I'm the chimera you fear that haunts your sleep
The one you didn't see through to the end or put out of misery

Held my heart in the rain
Our vacation to our god forsaken past that's what you claimed
But nothing remains
I'm in a strange place, vain to think you'd wait and come back to me

You could call me crazy
Do you think you used me, truly
