lyrics

(both of us)

He was drafting his in a flat about nine streets over
While I was drafting mine and calling it restraint
Two people with two phones and two identical silences
Eleven days of parallel and pointless bravery

Both of us (both of us)
The whole time, both of us
Same fear, same days, both of us
Both of us

Both of us, both of us, both of us, both of us
The thing I was afraid of was afraid of me
Both of us, both of us, both of us, both of us
And neither of us is going to get those days back

I asked him what his said. He said "roughly what yours said."
Roughly. He will not show me. He is never going to show me.
And that is somehow the most reassuring thing about him.
(BASS RETURNS, WARMER)

Both of us, both of us, both of us, both of us
The thing I was afraid of was afraid of me
Both of us, both of us, both of us, both of us
And neither of us is going to get those days back

(both of us...)
