lyrics

I wish that it was 1970
I’d call your answering machine
Pretend you’re whispering to me
Instead I see your face on every screen

I wish that I could isolate the pain
Cut it out, sterilize, and clean
Give the wound a couple weeks
Instead it fills me whole, bursts at the seams

Let me miss you
Let me forget you
If I can’t kiss you
Can I regret you
Your sweat stains my sheets
Your lips brush my cheek
In my dreams, in my dreams
Let me miss you

I wish that I could recoup all I spent
Expanding the rooms of my mind
Just to fit you within them
Instead I’ll be too scared to build again

I’ll try to invent what comes next
I’ll remove your name from those plans
Alchemize the torment into text
Clear my head

Let me miss you
Let me forget you
If I can’t kiss you
Can I regret you
Your air’s all I breathe
Your arms cradle me
In my dreams, in my dreams
Let me miss you
