The Desperate Act

You were right, babe

None of this means anything

There's so much more for us to be than seen

Somehow, all of the sudden

I find myself struggling

Two lives are too much and not enough

I concede this childish need for attention

It's the desperate act

Of a disappearing man

You better catch him while you can

What a mess

Past and present stitched together

Perilously tethered

I ain't fooling anyone

'Least of all, me

Calling in sick forever

And I'm calling bullshit on everyone

This is a test

And I'm failing it

You were right, babe

I love how you know me

I know how you love me

And I know how you long for this song's end
