I Hear You

I'll never say it, it sounds so confusing
I live alone and I'm afraid of losing
But that's years behind and I don't think about it now

I don't like to be imagined and unwilling
Set the table for a conference on the killing
And I think you touched me once
When I was drunk and we were swimming
But that's years behind and I don't think about it now

We're alike beside your life's ugly indifference
Learn to bite your tongue and bide time for deliverance
The only time I claim to ever feel alive was as a villain
But that's years behind and I don't think about it now

Now I hide behind my eyelids in the kitchen
Washing dishes while I cry for the efficiency
Come close to me, I'll listen
While your fingertips find rhythm
In my ribs and spine but I am resigning from it now

I'll never say it, it sounds so confusing
What does it mean if you're the nicest thing I've cared for?
I live alone and I'm afraid of losing
You'll never notice but I've never been so scared

I hear you, something's in the distance
Crawling toward you, bouncing over treetops
I hear you
I hear you

I hear you, something's in the distance
Crawling toward you, bouncing over treetops
I hear you
I hear you
