Bowlly Goes Dancing Drunk into the Future
LOVING Lyrics

Maybe you could talk freely
I wish you would open up and speak your mind without fear of judgement or consequence

Speak to me for once so truly
Give me an honest response that isn't clouded by pretense or deceit

For once so truly
Sincere communication is rare, but desperately needed in this moment

I could know
Your words could provide clarity and remove the uncertainty that confounds me

Just where you're going
In the context of our relationship, please disclose what direction you see yourself heading in

Just where I'm standing
My position in relation to yours is unclear, and I would appreciate some insight into what we both want

That would really be something
I yearn for the deeper intimacy that can only be attained through candid dialogue

In most ways on most days
Most of the time, I feel like I'm disappearing or fading away

I am clearly disappearing
My sense of self and personal agency is diminishing with each passing moment of confusion and insecurity

At the thought of our nearing
As our relationship inches closer to an end, I feel less and less like I matter to you

An end
Our love may be coming to a close, and that is a difficult reality to face

This morning I awoke
I began my day with a sense of expectation or hope for a new chapter in our relationship

And read the words
Upon reviewing your written messages, I hoped to gain a deeper understanding of your feelings

That you wrote
Your written statements may hold more authenticity than your spoken words

They were different from what you spoke
The content of your messages conflicted with what you have expressed verbally, adding to my confusion

And it was there you declared
In your written words, you made a statement that was painful and disheartening to me

Our love is unfair
You believe our relationship is imbalanced, and that realization is hurtful to me
