Never nearer deary than right now hear me wield the hyperbolic mystery
Never closer than when you're gone
Getting off: why you got on
Start your day at dusk not dawn
Never nearer deary than now we're severed permanently, two worlds turning free.
Two fires burning to be the brightest.
Attracted by the glare
distracted by the air
It's always hard to breath when we burn oxygen right up.
Never nearer deary than when we see clearly what burns me
confirms that I have vices
that encourage me
wrapped as mummy well preserved
it's not wrong until the judgment's served
It's not bad for me
It's just desert
It wasn't my fault
if we both got hurt.
Never nearer deary dear me. I'll just be me ceaselessly hopelessly
Endlessly dope as this
Tie up the rope like this
Hold back the neck
It only dangles empty
for dramatic effect.
Ride me like Busch Gardens
You wanna come back
but it'll be a year
before you're screaming down the tracks

Never nearer just this year we shattered reality to see what could addle me
Not the boat
no, the paddle's me
moving through the shit
past the dreams
The current makes
all my plans disappear
via disrepair
I have an attic for storage
but I never go up there.
Never nearer deary than right here period.
No rest for the weary that's why I steer clear.
I keep a little energy
So it don't matter what you share
I have extra parts
So you don't ever have to spare
a moment for me deary
Stay clear of me
I see how you mirror me
Reflecting an inner me
Pretending I let you in
but that was just the lobby
and the courtyard
There's a whole palace
but you didn't get that far.

Never nearer deary than right now hear me.
I held you up that's why you never ever fear me.
I did it all, you shouldn't ever try and dare me
I had too many balls to ever handle yours carefully.

So as it shatters and breaks
it's not really a mistake
I set you free to be
whatever you can make

I have the world with pockets empty
The clocks have stopped out of envy
but the watches watch me mending
Never nearer deary than right when it ended.
