lyrics

(mm)

The three dots appeared and then they stopped and then again
Four times in ninety seconds, which I counted, obviously
Somebody on the other side of a city writing and deleting
(and deleting)
And I did the same thing back, so we were both just breathing

Whatever it was, it was long (it was long)
Four attempts means it was a paragraph, at least

Typing
(typing, typing)
The most information I have ever received from nothing
Typing
Somebody nearly told me something and I nearly asked

In the end she sent a photo of her cat and I sent a heart
And whatever the paragraph was, it is gone now, permanently
Deleted drafts do not go anywhere, they just stop existing
(stop existing)
Somewhere there is a version of us that got that message

I could ask. "You were typing for a while."
Six words. I have had them ready for a month.
The dots have not come back.
(BASS RETURNS)

Typing
(typing, typing)
The most information I have ever received from nothing
Typing
Somebody nearly told me something and I nearly asked

(typing...)
