Lyrics:
Do you go to the dungeon to find out
How to make peace with your days in the dungeon
Writing a letter to you didn't make me feel any more peaceful
then
How I felt when we weren't speaking because I didn't cop to what
I did.
I can't love you because we're supposed to have professional
boundaries.
I'd like you to be schooled and in awe as though you were kissed by god
full on the lips.
I'm in the front row the front row with popcorn I get to see you see
you close up
I'm too tired to recount the unpleasantries one by one one
minute
I want to banish you the next I want to be on a deserted island with
you along
With my three favorite cd's ambivalent yet in your bed
We've yet to acknowledge what really happened slid into the
ditch
I have this overwhelming loss of ambition we said let's name thirty
good reasons
Why we shouldn't be together I started by saying things
Like "you smoke" "you live in new jersey (too far)"
You started saying things like "you belong to the world"
All of which could have been easily refuted but the conversation was
hypothetical
I am totally short of breath for you why can't you shut your
stuff off.....
i'm in the front row the front row with popcorn I get to see you see
you close up
And I laughed until my lungs hurt I love how you bust my chops
You don't always feel seen sometimes you feel erasable unfortunately I cannot
reciprocate in my current state
I think we should be careful of how much time we spend together ... for a
while i'm speaking you know
How much you hate to be interrupted maybe spend some time alone to fill up
your proverbial cup
So that it doesn't always have to be about you i've been wanting your
undivided attention
I like the fact that you're nothing like me are you not
burdened
By the lack of perspective people Have of your charmed life
(seemingly)?
I'm in the front row the front row with popcorn I get to see you see
you close up
