Your love was real
And it was there in full
But with a push then
There must come a pull
The sight of his face
Coming into view
Like an apartment
You take a liking to
An early morning
Plane ride flying overhead
How does it feel
To sleep in stranger's beds

I swear to god
You're like a
New religion
Preaching gospel
With each new incision

I'd like to know what you
And him get up to
When the lights go down
And the viper bites you
Gasoline tobacco
Gin and tonic
Crickets chirping
Yeah it's so harmonic
A transcendental
Kind of version of grief
Light the candle and
Get on your knees to preach
Did you realize
It's not easy to teach
Or is it just out of reach

It's the way
That you kiss me
It's the way
That I miss
A love that's over
Before it even exists
And everyday
I struggle to stay awake
I am fighting a war
With the silence you make

You would be right if you
Thought I would fall for
Something so real
And yet so uncalled for
I would die if
I could wash your clothes
And sterilize the things
That hurt your soul
And it's your love
That's keeping me inspired
But it never goes off
That gun's never fired

I swear to god
You're like a
New religion
Preaching gospel
With each new incision

It's the way
That you kiss me
It's the way
That I miss
A love that's over
Before it even exists
And everyday
I struggle to stay awake
I am fighting a war
With the silence you make
