lyrics

the end:

we wake up and I can't reach you

your eyes are still closed

I know you're awake I heard you shaking

but you're nowhere near

and I can't do shit

we get up I still can't reach you

the coffee's lukewarm

and the space growing between us

is silent expansive cold


the end part 2:

when it rains in this desert I'm home

clouds roll in and I don't feel as old

smell the asphalt I'm a kid again

wasn't better but I still miss it

and I can't try to hold a light

to your sharp elbows in my bed and the dried crisp leaves around your head

and the train never came and I would never claim that we found what we needed in each other

no it wasn't what we needed in each other or at least

it wasn't enough it wasn't enough and now I'm not ok

it wasn't enough it wasn't enough and now nothing feels sacred

your hands in the soil your fingers they move through the moist they are safe

we tried to go back it wasn't the same now it's crumbled and gone

the last time we talked I knew it was gone it was the physical absence of something
