You told me you wanted to keep it rolling
Not to leave it on the hill
If I had known your intentions I wouldn’t have mentioned
The way we had it still
My only frustration is outward appearance
For looking like I cared
My head in the clouds took a hit coming down
Now my want for love’s impaired
I pulled you closer
Closer I hated how you could
Go on submit me to torture
Please hold on
Fuck all your bullshit analogies
I went from heaven to facing reality
I don't know what you were thinking
I just to hold you i just want to hold you
My attachment to you just arose from panic
Purely instability
If I had really been steady I would have already
Overcame this misery
Now you’re talking to me like it never happened
I don’t need you never did
You pretend it’s my fault this is just the result
Of you going off the grid
Clearly we had a connection
And clearly you don’t feel the need to correct it
I don’t want to hold you I just want amendment
I just wanna know that you wanted affection
All I wanted was a life with you
Where I knew my own self needs
Now i can barely breathe
I don’t want you in my life but
I know I
Can do better than that
I can do better than that
Clearly we had a connection (I pulled you closer)
But clearly we don’t have the means to correct it (Closer I hated how you could)
So why’d you insist that we maintain a friendship (Go on submit me to torture)
And why shift the blame you’re the one that severed it (Please hold on)
