Bad News / Purity

This is just a coincidence but when I saw you I thought "oh fuck
I'm about to make a mistake that I can't take back"
But i guess my aim is pretty shit and I always want to admit impediments

Ever since the end of this, or ever since I met you
I've been thinking "I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to"

And how the fuck am I supposed to be enough, dayenu
I'm rubber, you're glue, bad news

This is just a coincidence but when i saw you i thought "oh fuck
I'm about to make a mistake that i can't take back"

There's a sorta purity in the impression you give me
I know that it's incorrect i know that it's incorrect
I know that it's incorrect

Just give me a moment to think
I'm imagining you and me in a plain white dress
When i'm under duress

I just sorta assume that we'd learn each other
You'd fall in love and I'd stay the course
It'd be the best

But we tried that out and your answer was no
And my answer was yes

And you know why

Where I used to call in the basement whenever i sleep there
I wake with a sense of shame, i wake with a sense of shame
I know i'm the one to blame

Oh, i always hated the suburbs
Unsated and shuttered off in the middle lane
In the middle lane

I became a manicured island and nobody liked it
They wanted to make a left
They all had to turn around

Found a little purity in the impression you give me
Cracked like the concrete ground

And you know why, and you know why

There's a sorta purity in the impression you give me
I know that it's incorrect, i want it that way instead
I want it that way instead

Just give me a moment to think
I'm imagining something good that we both respect
