lyrics

i missed the signal, but felt the
end of a crackling stale era
cus surely it couldn’t be just
those street lamps lighting yr face up
turnt sideways on the highway
you know what they say about virginia

now- what’s the chance we could traverse
our made-up forty-eight hours?
yr signals of ambivalence
have kept me wired the whole night since
of dumb proofs, there are so few
I would not do… just to keep up with you

cus when I tasted
the salt in yr hair
six sheets of bitterness
dissolved into thin air
fools’ classic moves held tried and true
as frantic hands tried to keep up with you

mommy tried to curb her pining
on the drive back to the island
but you blared the self-titled, so there’s no use
“oh, but a weekend’s not the record”
you said I could write it better
I just want to write it better this time

(whooooooa hey!)

I’ll scan the room at core events
with notes inside my back pockets
these fruitless pursuits make no sense
but yr mania’s contagious
so I’ll swoon by the full moon in crowded rooms, just to keep up with
reassess all presets if only I could keep up
close my red eyes tonight just to keep up with you
