Lyrics
(we can play boyfriend and girlfriend, like we used to.)
staring in through the laundromat window,
i feel like i'm drowning in soapy water.
northeastern winter never felt so goddamn lonely.
i wish i was drowning in soapy water.
(at least then i'd be dead and gone--
where i feel like i belong.)
and i've tried so many times to put you out of my head,
but distance makes the heart grow fonder, so i guess i'll cling to you
until i'm dead.
make no mistake, this is gonna kill me.
unfounded obsession.
i've never met you, but i still wanna feel you
sleeping next to me
between the covers
and the cold floor.
(theres a reason i still wear socks in this house.
despite the carpeting, i feel so cold.)
and i've tried so many times to put you out of my head,
but distance makes the heart grow fonder, so i guess i'll cling to you
until i'm dead.
(personally, i don't give a shit about all that.
because you know what? i can't learn anything from you
that i can't read in some fuckin' book.
unless you want to talk about you. who you are.
and i'm fascinated. i'm in. but you don't want to do that,
do you, sport?
you're terrified of what you might say.
your move, chief.)
