When You’re Near

[Ichabod]
When you're near
It's like I can't focus or breathe
When you're near
I can't decide what it is either
It's joy
Or it's hell
When you're near

When you're near
My skin gets all clammy and wet
Yeah, it's gross
But really the way that I get
When you're close
Every time
When you're near
When you're near
You are near

When you're near
I think about all the things I've done right
When you're near
A shitty day is a prurient night
When you're near
When you're near
When you're here
When you're close
When you're near

When you're there
Looking at me from under your eyes
When you're close
I smell your fragrance
A citrus surprise!
When you're close
Only then
Only all the time
When you are near
You are near
Standing here

I'm aware
That this is a lot to take in
It's not fair to throw this on you
But I don't care
Cause this is the sanest I've been
Since I moved here
I've improved here
So can you
And so what?
So maybe the neighbors will talk
Say we're smiting the Lord up above
And maybe not
Even I can't get over the shock
That I love you
Brom, I love you
I'm in love

Did you hear what I said?
Do you have something to say?
I can see
You're like me
Spinning lost and forlorn
Always cursing the day and the way you were born
When you're near
I dream of the future we'll share
When you're near
I fantasize seeing you there
Doubt and fear
Disappear
When you're near

When you're near
When you're near
When you smile
I resile
From denial
All the while
I can't bear
Knowing there
Lies somewhere
Infantile
Shame and fear
Brom, let it out
I'm standing right here

When you're near me
Don't you feel the same way I do?
When you're near
