Sōmaphore - Words That Made It Known Lyrics

Hello
Hello
I haven't seen you in so long
When you left you were perfect
And I still preferred
Being curled beneath your gaze
In paralytic ecstasy
To the violent rapture
That left me passed out on the floor

Did you think we'd see it?
A longer time than this
Can you pardon me my patience?
Can you pretend that I'm excited?
Even more than I can get
Just slow me down
And kick me if I use the word "love"

Isn't that why
You didn't say goodbye?
Even under all the weight
I carried just to make you think I'm strong
I smiled every time you looked my way
If I didn't feel so confessional
I'd lie and say I knew all along
That you know more than I do

Did you think we'd see it?
A longer time than this
Can you pardon me my patience?
Can you pretend that I'm excited?
Even more than I can get
Just slow me down
And kick me if I use the word "love"
