In the Absence - "Fixation on the Surface"
I don't want to talk
Nothing can justify this for you
I just want to
beat you
So you feel as bad as I do
I'm going somewhere soon
to where the ground stays still
and the people move, and the people move

Whether it would have been better or worse, it wouldnt have been the same without you
All of the time that I felt my worst, I wouldnt have been as bad without you

You could have always acted
a little more excited
I'll take this part of
the story and rewrite it
I'll write my happy ending
without you ever in it
Hold my hand
turn it face up and slit it

Whether it would have been better or worse, it wouldnt have been the same without you
All of the time that I felt my worst, I wouldnt have been as bad without you

Whether it would have been better or worse, it wouldnt have been the same without you
All of the time that I felt my worst, I wouldnt have been as bad without you

All the time you felt your worst could never amount to as bad as I do
