the blow - true affection lyrics

rate me

i wanted a junction,

and, often, there was one:

you'd surface face first

and we'd share thought bubbles.

i still believe in the phrases that we breathed,

but i know the distance isnt fair to cross.

[CHORUS]

i was out of your league,

but you were 20000 underneath the sea,

waving affections.

you were out of my league,

at a distance that i didnt wanna see,

i wanted you nearer.

your depths made a pressure

that punctured my work,

oh, and your fluids couldnt tolerate

the force of my thirst.

i loved the place

where we shared our tiny grace,

but just because it's real don't mean it's gonna work.

[CHORUS]

and true affection floats.

true affection sinks like a stone.

i never felt so close.

i never felt so all alone.
