Meaningless Sex
It's the day after, and I want you to stay for a while
I lose my grip on your shirt, I'm laying here in denial
Dissociating 'cause intimacy scares me a lot
First time my eyes are open, first time I don't fear the touch
Why can't you see what I see? My God, you can't see at all
If you saw what I see, you wouldn't come when I call
You'd be arrogant, I'd see your face on every screen
Instead, you waste late nights on a screen laying next to me
And when I'm begging for it to be over
I imagine you say
"Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again"
Mm-mm
People pass me on the pavement and they don't seem to make a sound
God, when you're away, all my thoughts are really loud
You called me heroin, but heroines are never this sweet
If I was heroin, then you'd still be praying at my feet
They say they don't like to kiss, so I asked for a hand on my neck
To feel anything at all, but we're kissing in my head
Is loving just how you touch? Is it just how you get off?
If so, I'll lie down right here and let you, just to feel love
And when I'm begging for it to be over
I imagine you say
"Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again"
Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again
Do you love me despite my body?
'Cause I've seen the way you look at me
And you look at me like you're seeing me
Just how I always wanted to be
Now I'm crying after we had sex
'Cause I think I fell in love again
Can you stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again
Can you love me and all my body?
Say I'm not just your pornography
A quick fix and some company
It's just how I've always want it to be
Now I'm crying after we had sex
'Cause I think I fell in love again
I lose my grip on your shirt, I'm laying here in denial
Dissociating 'cause intimacy scares me a lot
First time my eyes are open, first time I don't fear the touch
Why can't you see what I see? My God, you can't see at all
If you saw what I see, you wouldn't come when I call
You'd be arrogant, I'd see your face on every screen
Instead, you waste late nights on a screen laying next to me
And when I'm begging for it to be over
I imagine you say
"Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again"
Mm-mm
People pass me on the pavement and they don't seem to make a sound
God, when you're away, all my thoughts are really loud
You called me heroin, but heroines are never this sweet
If I was heroin, then you'd still be praying at my feet
They say they don't like to kiss, so I asked for a hand on my neck
To feel anything at all, but we're kissing in my head
Is loving just how you touch? Is it just how you get off?
If so, I'll lie down right here and let you, just to feel love
And when I'm begging for it to be over
I imagine you say
"Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again"
Can I stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again
Do you love me despite my body?
'Cause I've seen the way you look at me
And you look at me like you're seeing me
Just how I always wanted to be
Now I'm crying after we had sex
'Cause I think I fell in love again
Can you stay for a little while?
This isn't meaningless sex
And I want to fall in love again
Can you love me and all my body?
Say I'm not just your pornography
A quick fix and some company
It's just how I've always want it to be
Now I'm crying after we had sex
'Cause I think I fell in love again
