Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I only worry that I'm crazy
'Cause if it's all true
Well it's all true
You know I ain't lying
'Cause I hate wasting time
You said soon we'll be leaving this place
And the life it defined
And you were looking hella phased
I was still making up my mind
I put them words in the open and they oxidized
Falling, golden and heavy, in the middle of the room
But you were pouring over them and I was pouring over you, yeah
Snagged by the glinting of your open, glossy eyes
Tryna decide if it's clarity or a reflection
Is it careful tension or an embarrassing infection?
[Verse 2]
We can't get any closer without touching, I said
And I can't put my hand there without going through it
Without us both going through it
And they say the day you die is when you meet your match
So you're probably hoping that I cut you some slack
And that wouldn't be too bad
If I didn't have to eat
But if I catch sleep in the shower, I can maybe get an hour
[Verse 3]
'Cause now I know the difference
Now I know the difference between a prayer and a preference
Between desire and a deference
'Cause I always leave with love
A new pouch in my pocket, it's a sweet slow drip
But in my vice grip it's all gone by the morning
You know, you may always want more in the morning
[Verse 4]
You're the heroine
Good God, yeah, you feel so smooth
When you come through I see you
On the next page in the wreckage of the fan and the flames
Handing out the blankets to the families praying
Baby, I'm a young lover down on my luck
Undercover as a stick in the mud
I'm a fixer uppers, and if you're a nip-tucker
I can be your partner man
I can be your partner like Chan and Chris Tucker
[Verse 5]
Without touching, though, I can't do without touching
If that's asking too much we can just close the book
Don't you wanna know if you're supposed to look
I wanna know if you know my name
Should a ghost, should a ghost say hey?
Hey, hey
Should a ghost, should a ghost say hey?
Hey, hey
