lyrics

I fell in love with a figment of my imagination
Tough shit, far too much hesitation
I would like to learn to open my doors,
but the handles aren't there anymore - I don't know what for

You are the brightest star that heaven's ever seen
You've got the type of soul that'd make Jesus Christ look mean
I wish I could catch you but you're just too high for me,
fingertips are just out of reach, blind and I forgot how to see

I fell apart when you took my hand and kissed it,
just the start and I knew I couldn't miss it
The space between us makes me want to fucking scream
Not as bad as it seems, wish I could keep you in my dreams
but oh, I wish a lot of things

You had the sweetest way of saying that it's over,
your words are milk and honey, your voice a four leaf clover
You twist the language beautifully, my dear
Tell me what I like to hear, tell me not to fear,
your intentions were clear

I knew the song had to end, and it looks like she's right here
