adeem the artist – wounded astronaut lyrics

i’ve got a highlight reel of all the times
i made somebody cry
as a selfish, reckless, less invested friend than what i came by
some bad ideas about what loving is
left an awful residue
ain’t no way for me to unring all the bells i rang in my youth

oh, the women i have loved
and left injured in the shadow of
my childhood dysfunctions playing out in real time
were that when i was younger
i could’ve put to use my wonder
to imagine better ways a healthy partner is dеfined
oh the women i havе loved and the wounds i left behind

i thought the well+drawn line between our clothes
meant our brains were different kinds
i could not relate because the subtle shape of theirs
was not the same as mine
i was insensitive and hyper sensitive
a duality not lost on me
i thought that love was just these feelings
with no regard for what a lover needs
oh, the women i have loved
and left injured in the shadow of
my childhood dysfunctions playing out in real time
were that when i was younger
i could’ve put to use my wonder
to imagine better ways a healthy partner is defined
oh the women i have loved and the wounds i left behind
i finally got myself a therapist
i was such a little wounded astronaut
using women like accessories
mirrors to reflect my broken parts
