The Same as Being in Love

When you base

Your whole identity

On reaction against somebody

It抯 the same as being in

I tend to forget when I drink.

I抦 doing it again I think

A hand to hold, an ego to flatter,

慍ause you were the wineskin, I was the bladder.

Time passes, events fall away

(I don抰 think they抣l hurry).

Hurry up, I抦 blacking out,

High on the vapor

慍ause I was the typo,

You were the liquid paper.

Talk it over, talk it, overtalk it.

The answer抯 still the same:

It抯 discontent, humiliation

慍ause you were the theme and I was the variation.

Try to take a less dramatic course of action;

This attraction, introspection-diction predilection is breaking my heart again,

breaking my heart again.
