​limerent

O my love, get out of my sight
No matter where you’re always there to flash before my eyes
I try to make your bed somewhere outside my head
And let you go but we both know you’ll find a way back in
We lay behind the scenes‚ steady as the score
The picture fakes reciprocation - so hard to ignore
I wonder if we meet‚ I wonder what I meant
You say goodbye‚ you stay, you’re mine
For I am the limerent

O, how would I let you know
You’re where I’ve made my home
When I don’t wanna live here anymore?

I used to stay awake at night to watch you sleep
That one night you caught me you became afraid of me
You would hear me crying when I’d think about you leaving
You and I were dead before we’d finally rest in peace
I think I’m psycho when I cycle through the days
We used to hang out stoned and lazy
Bang and drive each other crazy
How come you still live inside my psyche on the daily?
I get to the point where I invite it - I’m a maniac
Not to mention all my talk of how I meant to be
What the hell was that? I must be big demented mentally
Never kept it centipede - never told you anything
I just hung my story overhead like it was rent to me
I don’t blame you leaving - could you leave my brain alone?
Every time you check on me‚ I love it, but I hate it though
Say that I’m okay but I can’t tell you that I stay with you
Can’t get rid of you, but I’m ready to

O‚ how would I let you know
You’re where I’ve made my home
When I don’t wanna live here anymore?

I take care of you now
