lyrics

I want to thank you for being there when I needed to talk at two in the morning
and your eyeliner isn't running, you can't stop rubbing your face.
I know how you are and you are understanding, well understood,
and I wanted to thank you for being there whenever you were.
And if you're having trouble breathing, I want you to know I'm here.
And I will not tread softly, I want you to hear me here.

Cause you tend to push things away, you tend to misinterpret
distance, fuck interdependence, it's disconcerting,
people get close to each other and then tear apart.
I think that I'm generally a happy person.
It's just the past few weeks, it's been apparent that likely not.
I think I might be a little bit less than a person, and presence
is effort with intention in mind,
and I might be a little less than a person.

So I never finished the books you lent me,
I purposefully just stopped reading,
so you'd still have some reason to hit me up.
And I know how you are, reach for understanding
over ever feeling understood,
You're good to leave when you want to, if ever you should.

Still if you're having trouble sleeping, I want you to feel me here,
and I won't touch too softly, I want you to feel me here.

And I might might talk too fast, hold your hair back,
and push a glass of ice water,
try to relax, reproach with tact, the camera flash is blinding but,
I kept it trained on you cause you could never really see anyway.
