Losing Streak

Taps run cold
And you're comatose to closeness once again
How low are we gonna go
'til you let me in the bed?

It's a lost art
Suffer for the sake of saying, "We made it far"
It's not who you are
It's the subtle way I break as we stop and start

It's everything
Incompatible intricacies
Had to up the dosage on your sertraline
Longtime lovers on a losing streak
You know it's so unsettling
I still feel your pulse through my drum machine
I still feel your femininity
Longtime lover, you're killing me

Flee the scene
'cause you felt unseen
But I'm likewise left for dead
(with so much left unsaid)

I could run to a new realm
But all of my past selves
Want to cling to you instead

Were we a false start?
Shackled too soon
Took a shell-shocked shot in the dark
No, it's not who you are
It's the subtle ways you say I'm not what you want

It's everything
Incompatible intricacies
Had to up the dosage on your sertraline
Longtime lovers on a losing streak
You know you're still my family
Flash flood, freak show, fever dream
Ripping through the pages of my diary
Longtime lover, just fight for me

Don't say you're giving up
I think we gave it way too much
For you to promptly pack it up
Like it's easy
Oh everyone I've loved
Told me I'm doing way too much
And I thought you'd be the only one
Not to leave me

It's everything
Incompatible intricacies
Had to up the dosage on your sertraline
Longtime lovers on a losing streak
Don't you know it's so unsettling?
I still feel your pulse through my drum machine
I still feel your femininity
Longtime lover, you're killing me

Killing me
Killing me
Killing me
