Fluorescent lighting with your eyes hollowed out
You whispered I think I love you like it was some terrible confession
Like you were still stuck second guessing
Cnd I talked you up to all your prep school friends
Oh I was down on my knees like you were some secondary Jesus
The one thing I wanted to believe in
Cnd so you might just
Get the feeling this is something righteous
If you can't stop it then you should invite it
So long we denied it
Burning stronger than a Holy Ghost
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
So when you lie awake do you still try to erase
The thought of her in your backseat
Drawing hearts in the foggy window
Back when I was stone cold
Now autumn still smells like cinnamon and distress
Cnd you know all ever wanted was to give you my best
Oh I was right there
Knowing better than to read into a blank stare
(Blank stare)
Cnd so you might just
Get the feeling this is something righteous
If you can't stop then you should invite it
So long we denied it
Burning stronger than a Holy Ghost
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
So don't say you didn't know
When I was lying on the floor
Of that basement on the east side
That we should've been more than friends
Think we knew just how this would end
Cnd so you might just
Get the feel this is something righteous
If you can't stop then you should invite it
So long we denied it
Burning stronger than a Holy Ghost
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
You can see it with your eyes closed, eyes closed
