Текст пісні
It's not the spiritual
It's not the intellectual
It's not the merely pitiful that makes me feel this way
It's not the walk that I take
Through the park to her place
It's the breath she takes
In between the words her mouth makes
Focus my mind
For not ceasing my mouth
When the moment was perfect
She said shut up, wake up
I can smell the coffee, why can't you?
When it's so near
She said hold it, embrace it
These feelings are surreal but you just choose to ignore them
More like a sister to me
When she was twenty-three
She drew a picture of me
The likeness was uncanny
We bless the notes in margins
In the books from the libraries
They tell us what to feel
When to love and how to heal
Focus my mind
For not ceasing my mouth
When the moment was perfect
She said shut up, wake up
I can smell the coffee, why can't you?
When it's so near
She said hold it, embrace it
These feelings are surreal but you just choose to ignore them
She said screw it, just leave it
The moment was perfect but it won't be for much longer
She said shut up, wake up
I can smell the coffee, why can't you?
When it's so near
It's hard for me to leave you when you act like seventeen
Did you ever fucking listen when your head was caving in?
You're far too dumb and stupid to look me in the eye
I don't know why
I don't know why
