lyrics

I'm sorry your mind's been made,
and I'm sorry he made it for you.
but its not like these strings
were pulled in advance,
or he covered his tracks,
he pulled them right in front of you...

but he doesn't know why your father left home
in a puff of grey smoke
like the last time he spoke to you
he doesn't know why your mother drinks so much
alone when he looks at you
I can see right through
and he doesn't see half the things that I see in you

I'm not sorry he found us here,
I'm sorry that later, I found him with you.
The thought process for that fight,
wasn't entirely right,
luminescing at night,
we break off in pairs of two.

but he doesn't know why you're sleeping alone
or you're up on your phone
the balance is thrown
he doesn't know where you go in your mind
when reality floats
and its lagging behind.
do you want to come down?
touch the ground
keep me around
