page one, side two - 00:01, jan. 1st (transatlanticynicism)

You got addicted to the distance
My fingertips send shocks through your system
You say there can't ever be an ending if there's never a beginning
You're intimately intertwined in the intricacies of my mind
I'm intermittently reminded that you instinctually left me behind
You left me behind

You always said you never meant
The subtext that your tone suggested
That it won't happen again
That I'm not what you expected
That I'm worth it
That i'm worthless
I'm too intense
I'm too unfocused
That I spend too much time inside my mind
And I said
"Yeah, 'cause that's where you feel closest"
That's where you feel closest

I need you so much closer
But you don't love me when you're sober
I need you so much closer

I got addicted to the concept
You start walking east and I'll walk west
And we'll meet somewhere in the middle
And I'll hold you for just a little while
Until the dust settles
And all that's left is sentiment
And accidental words you slurred without a second thought for consequence
Without a second thought for what it meant
A second's thought for hours spent
A second chance at happiness, a second part to a life less lived
So I'll walk east and you'll walk west and we'll both pretend we tried our best
And we'll both lament loves lost and left then forget and reset and do it all over again

I need you so much closer
But you don't love me when you're sober
I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer
But you won't love me until it's over
I need you so much closer
