The Desperate Act - Owen

You were right, babe

None of this means anything

There’s so much more for us to be than seen

Somehow all of the sudden I find myself struggling

Two lives are too much and not enough

I concede this childish need for attention

It’s the desperate act of a disappearing man

You’d better catch him while you can

What a mess

Past and present stitched together, perilously tethered

I ain’t fooling anyone (least of all, me)

I’m calling in sick forever

And I’m calling bullshit on everyone

This is a test and I’m failing it

You were right, babe

I love how you know me

I know how you love me

I know you long for this song to end
