Some Pairs Grow Used To Each Other - James Chelliah, Azon

If there’s a reason we don’t fuck anymore

It’s fine, not final, worry if it pleases you

When it rains, it rains

When it’s plain, it’s dull

When it’s dull, it’s barren

Ultra-irrational, shit happens

We happen to be in a phase

Your soothsayer friend says it is a funk and

That sexless boyfriends will sublimate ennui

And find someone else to mingle with

Right?

Cause when tingles go dormant

That must mean that we’re flawed

When were we flawless?

Most of us in an «us» are based on «if you x, y or z, we won’t work»

Try to subvert it, try to ignore it

Our co-dependence on peace is porous

To give the same to you I give to all of us

Give up on what we used to be

It’s easy enough to want sex in the bathroom at a house party

Beers in the beer garden at 7 on a Sunday

Sacrificial sleep in the name of love or lust, not consistency

Nah, you can have it one way

When I’m drunk in lust, then I’m sad plus lonely

Off euphoria, then I’m carnally sober

When I’m carnally sober, you feel insecure

Then I feel insecure, cause I know what the cure is

But I won’t be touched, so you won’t be touched

Then it’s unto itself

Layers and layers and layers and layers

And layers and layers and layers later

I’m sure we’ll deal with this shit some point

We haven’t been the way we used to be

We are growing

Deep into the things that adults do

The joy it brings

Shit, we always knew

We always knew

Just a matter of time, to come through

And renew

You know me, I know you

What a lovely thing to be accustomed to

We can take a sec and just be real here

You love me, I love you

Inherently, I’ve seen how we’ve improved

Fuck all these people sowing seeds of doubt

You have me, I have you

My passion lies in bedsheets, dark streets, plain meals

Telling everyone the time you made me really feel

You and me, me and you

Don’t you know we’re pioneering nothing new?

Bet you know someone who feels like this, too
