lyrics

You make me feel dumb
In the best way
And I could stare all night
And read what you say

My heart is sunk
Before it wrecks
I lick the envelope
With my baited breath

It's like we're falling into something real
But babe we're so beyond that tired-old lust
So let's make like shadows on the wall
And get vicarious

Sweet talkin’ the void
Profess your love in a vacuum
Means nothing at all
Kind of fun to lay it all on you
So here we go

Sweet nothings
Specters of affection
Haunt the LED's
But babe I'm crashin'

Crush the glass
Try to see it clearer
But what's underneath
Looks like a mirror

It's like we're falling into something real
But babe we're so beyond that tired old lust
So let's make like we're our only ones
And get vicarious

Sweet talkin’ the void
Profess your love in a vacuum
Means nothing at all
Kinda fun to lay it all on you

She said that, “You only like it because you can project yourself on me"
(You only like it because you can project yourself)
She said that, “You only like it because you can project yourself on me, a prototype for something real”
(At least I think she'd say that)
