Sydney Sprague’s fourth single off maybe i will see you at the end of the world, “object permanence” discusses the pains of being in a long-distance relationship. In Atwood Magazine, Sprague described it as “about settling into that feeling of separation and trying to get comfortable.”
[Verse 1]
I get lonely but I, I get used to it, I
I get bored and I start some fires outside
I'm forgetful and it's not a problem
But if you're gone too long I will forget it
[Chorus]
That this is real, I'm not positive
I can't see it, is it obvious?
Is object permanence real?
[Verse 2]
When I think of you I, I get angry and I
I see couples in love, I hope they die
I don't really, I'm not that violent
I just need someone around to hold me
[Chorus]
Are you there? No, you're too far away
I can't feel it, is it still the same?
Is object permanencе real?
[Bridge]
Love is just a matter of timing, oh
And nеver deciding, oh, and screaming and crying
And I, oh I just thought I would know by now
Oh I just thought I would know
[Chorus]
Is it real? I'm not positive
I can't see it, is it obvious?
Is object permanence real?
[Outro]
I get lonely but I, I get used to it I (Is it real? I'm not positive)
I get bored and I start some fires outside (I can't see it, is it obvious?)
I'm forgetful and it's not a problem (Is object permanence real?)
But if you're gone too long I will forget it (Is it real? I'm not positive)
I get lonely but I, I get used to it I (I can't see it, is it obvious?)
I get bored and start some fires (Is object permanence real?)
