Not like it wasnt nothing at first
Just a heavy spin in a heavier room
Filled with people and pillows and spills

Not like it wasnt somewhat scary next
Like the sunburn and the goodbye
That was just awkward enough to be fun

Not like everything didn't blend and get
Different and slung underneath miles
And miles of bumpy stars and moon wisps, or rain and saké and leaving
Early and early

And telling your life close to my face
I know it's here you tell close
So just admit it and be close
Because I already am
And it won't make a difference to not say it anymore
