lyrics

you are inescapable
i tried to give up the way you make me feel
but every time you’re in my line of vision i cave
don’t worry, i’m not dumb enough
to truly believe this could be something real
i just want to be around you, have you in my space

small talk and laughing
to bandage the absence
of something i can have all to myself

tell me that you’re coming
and i won’t have to be alone with all my thoughts
you’re only ever around for a moment
but it’s the only moment i’m living for
tell me that you’re stopping by
give me just a few moments of your time
and when you go, i’ll hover here, eyes open wide
bathing in your afterlight

never been the chosen but you choose me for a minute, and that’s all right
i’ll take every second that i can get by your side

together in silence
to stomach the violence
that wrestles through me when you walk away

tell me that you’re coming
and i won’t have to be alone with all my thoughts
you’re only ever around for a moment
but it’s the only moment i’m living for
tell me that you’re stopping by
give me just a few moments of your time
and when you go, i’ll hover here, eyes open wide
bathing in your afterlight
