lyrics

I had a dream
I touched your shoulder on the street
before we met
and now I know
I know
sharp bits of me
tap you behind your major
arteries
I guess it's been a year now
since you shook my hand

Dissociating buildings we once passed
taking five steps back from memory
relapse
my body is stacked
with scaffolding
connecting my innards to your past
I can't be sorry you shook my hand

Well I guess, I guess
it's been a year now
I let it crawl
hope things are well
and you can call me
if you need a kidney
or my opinion
hope things are well

Well I guess, I guess
it's been a year now
I let it crawl
hope things are well
and you can call me
if you need my kidney
or my opinion
hope things are well

Hope things are well
