lyrics

You were the figment of this fever dream, a pacific northwest vision of evergreens
A drunken night turned into something but I lack the capacity to make you a reality
Spend most of my time without you drunkenly glancing and most of my time with you failing at romancing
There must be something in between “enabler” and “savior” but I haven’t got a clue if she wants me to chase her
I’m the parody of a hopeless romantic, Voltaire's sick satire of recovering addicts
I’m tired of talking about myself, small talk’s my version of Sartre's hell
You’re a melody that keeps the world dancing, I’m a joke that keeps you laughing
We both lack the balance to stick this landing but it still might work if we’re both not standing

Tell me about your wildest dreams and how they keep you up at night constantly
Tell me about where you want to be and how no one can see the passion you bleed
Because I see it, with my own two eyes, I see it, despite your attempts to hide
That’s the sad part of being one-of-a-kind, so few can relate to a snowflakes plight

[Chorus:]
Let love guide you through the madness
Let love guide you through the silence

“What are we doing?” I asked. “Living” you said. Well living is killing me but it’s a beautiful death
Please tell me if I’m just wasting my breath cuz I’ve done it before and won’t do it again.
But I like to take chances and won’t settle for less cuz you’ve sparked a fire in me I thought was dead
Like a modern day Prometheu,. someone had stolen it but it’s back at home slightly left of my chest

Tell me the craziest things and why I should let you be with me
Tell me where you see yourself while the rest of the world destroys itself
Tell me that future includes me we’ll smash capitalism and the patriarchy
Tell me if we share dreams we’ll live our lives nurturing each other’s seeds

Tell me everything, I wanna know what makes your heart skip a beat
Tell me if it’s because of me, I want to make you smile constantly
I see you, with my own two eyes, I see you, despite your attempts to hide
That’s the sad part of being hard-to-find, the journey takes a lifetime

[Chorus]

I still see you in my triumph. Spread right through me like a virus.
You overcame me like a virus. I’m succumbing, you’re a siren.
