Waking up next to another one Trying to avoid any eye contact As it would scare us like staring in the barrel of a gun As it would make the other human again, capable of feelings We shut this down because we tell ourselves we don't need it That we don't ache for a little bit of love It's just too **** hard to admit But still sleep around because we like the intimacy Trapped in a bed until the sun comes Because we've lost ourselves literally We ignore everything our heart tells us to As night falls the world will start crumbling So when you're still on top of the world enjoy the view

Intimacy
Waking up next to another one Trying to avoid any eye contact As it would scare us like staring in the barrel of a gun As it would make the other human again, capable of feelings We shut this down because we tell ourselves we don't need it That we don't ache for a little bit of love It's just too **** hard to admit But still sleep around because we like the intimacy Trapped in a bed until the sun comes Because we've lost ourselves literally We ignore everything our heart tells us to As night falls the world will start crumbling So when you're still on top of the world enjoy the view
