Maybe if I close my eyes tight enough
I can forget that I am surrounded by the empty sound of my isolation

Maybe if I close my eyes tight enough
I can forget that I am clutching at nothing but my own desperation

Maybe if I close my eyes tight enough
I can forget that you ever left and set off this cycle of self-destruction
We get drunk together so many times this bottle of ***** doesn't taste right without you
We could swim to the middle of the ocean

And let the tides pull us down under
Fighting not against it
Until you are drowning with the certainty
That we were made for breathing

We could swim to the middle of the ocean

And let the waves slam into our chests again and again
Struggling not against them
Til the oxygen has run from our lungs
And you gasp to reclaim it
Two days before you left
You said
"I just don't love you anymore"
And I started to wonder
If you ever did
The lines on your skin form mazes
Going round and round
Baby let me tell you
I wanna get lost in them
I don't wanna be found
I don't care if I'm never found
Stop making every ******* thing about you
