lyrics

Caught your image from afar,
got entangled in your words,
subtly enclosing me like a cocoon.
Ever since you occupy my waking hours
my mind is tormented by the fear
of us being disconnected.

Even though all you sell is just a mirage
I let it willingly occupy this empty heart.

We hardly feel the world outside
in this rapidly passing time
we spend on our streams entwined.
Though attracted to each other by design
what should make all this feel malign
it is just all we could ever ask for.

All we receive is just a mirage
it's sufficiently all we need inside our twisted hearts.

You are perfect just so perfect (that's all you need to be).
You are perfect just so perfect (that's all you're meant to be).
You are perfect just so perfect (that's all you need to be).
You are perfect just so perfect - a perfected waste of time.

That's all you need to be: a perfected waste of time.

That's all you need to be.
