lyrics

When you’ve done all you can, and I start to slip into the defense,
Dare not let attempted eloquence excuse the kick behind the knee.
Maybe in time I could help you better facilitate your brilliance.
Maybe in time you could teach me that I’m no more resilient.

I wanna love beyond the bottom of an empty sink,
Absorbing detail after detail of your memories,
Losing focus ‘til I’m actually listening.
And with however slight the emphasis to reaffirm
My second-nature vying favorably for you alone.
I am partial and would be proud to be in the wrong.

It’s more than necessary upkeep.
Hardly mundane to retain my sanity,
Catching a break to restore capacity.
I’ll be attentive for the downtime.
All your brain and the stored up energy
Never left; you’re just caught up bottling,
And I assure you, it’s your best quality.

I’ve not done all I can erasing efforts of the pretext.
Mark my words, I am the plagiarist that I pretended not to be.
Caught up ignoring any matters of which I’m claiming an attraction.
Caught up discouraging the flatter to remember to return a fraction.

I wanna love beyond the bottom of an empty sink,
Absorbing detail after detail of your memories,
Losing focus ‘til I’m actually listening.
And with however slight the emphasis to reaffirm
My second-nature vying favorably for you alone.
I am partial and would be proud to be in the wrong.

It’s more than necessary upkeep.
Hardly mundane to retain my sanity,
Catching a break to restore capacity.
I’ll be attentive for the downtime.
All your brain and the stored up energy
Never left; you’re just caught up bottling,
And I assure you, it’s your best quality.

You are capable of anything
-So much more than I could ever give credit.
If it’ll help you to know, I wanna let you know, I’m gonna learn your language.
