Only Love

Please keep your distance from me
I know it's hard to believe
I never wanted to be your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts
It only makes matters worse
I never said I would be your only love

Old ships, battle scars, silhouettes of skeletons
News on once the clouds are gone
These things that I am not
Old news heaven sent, if heaven wasn't what it is
If all the stars fell from the storm
Then this is what I've become

I need a new relief
Dressed as a new belief, and then
I can try to be anything or anyone other than who I was
We never hear the dawn, it'd wake your roommate up
So I'm between your sheets, wishing for anyone other than us

Please keep your distance from me
I know it's hard to believe
I never wanted to be your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts
It only makes matters worse
I never said I would be your only love

Long walks, phones that die
Summer in the dead of night
Some would say our heads are gone
And these were things we never was
Long cries, no response, silhouettes from all my bones
Still we get our heads on wrong
'Cause these are things we never was

I need a new relief
Disguised as a new belief and then
I can try to be anything or anyone other than who I was
And I will let you sing between your mother's sheets
And I will slip through the crack
Of the records that stack your bedroom wall

Ooh

Please keep your distance from me
I know it's hard to believe
I never wanted to be your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts
It only makes matters worse
I never said I would be your only love

Please keep your distance from me (we need no)
I know it's hard to believe (proper ending)
I never wanted to be your only love (that would mean this meant something)
I know the sting of pride hurts (we need no)
It only makes matters worse (proper ending)
I never wanted to be your only love (that would mean this meant something)

We need no (please keep your distance from me)
Proper ending (I know it's hard to believe)
That would mean (I never wanted to be)
This meant something (your only love)
We need no (I know the sting of pride hurts)
Proper ending (it only makes matters worse)
That would mean (I never said I would be)
This meant something (Your only love)

We need no proper ending
That would mean this meant something
We need no proper ending
That would mean this meant something
