Lights

I find comfort in your words

The way that you find comfort 

In my arms, in my arms, in my arms

Make believe with me that someday

All our paranoid

Insecurities will hurt you and me no more

 

So tell me baby

Do you love me like the way that I love you?

Having secret thoughts

In the middle of the night

Coming back to an empty home,

Where all the lights, lights, lights?

I’ve never felt so alone

Normal people make me feel strange love

I find comfort in your habits

 

I can’t help the way I move

Like branches on a tree

When a cool breeze blows by

You make up for it with your quirky

dancing, midnight romancing

Talk to me from the stars, baby

Gracefully, you know how to be

 

Stuck in heaven, stuck in hell

Nothing hurts worse than when I fell

From your good graces

It hurts like if you quantified

The metaphysical distance I fell for you

Then turned it into a real distance

Like 4 feet or 3 feet…

Then you put me at the top of it

And pushed me off of it

And watched me fall face first

And then I try to get up

And I break my ankles again

 

So tell me baby

Do you love me like the way that I love you?

Having secret thoughts

In the middle of the night

Coming back to an empty home,

Where are the lights, lights, lights?

I’ve never felt so alone

Normal people make me feel strange now

I find comfort in your habits

 

I’m thinking back on our winter walks,

The backseat of your car

I was lonelier back then

Cuz with you time is standing, time is still

If I hadn’t met you then

Would I be standing still?

And you don’t know me like I used to be

Thank God none of us are who we used to be

 

Something different

About the way you cut your hair

You are growing older and I am growing older

And everything is changing

Everything is aging

Can’t do much about it, but if I could

I would freeze your heart cryogenically

 

Something different about my feelings for you

I’m feeling more for you

Something I’ve never felt before

And I used to call bullshit on that saying but,

Now I think I understand

 

So tell me baby

Do you love me like the way that I love you?

Having secret thoughts

In the middle of the night

Coming back to an empty home,

Where are the lights, lights, lights?

I’ve never felt so alone

Normal people make me feel strange love

I find comfort in your habits
