latenight honeymoon - josephine's promise lyrics

[verse 1]
the radiator’s turning off and on
as shuffle spins another of our songs
don’t ask me where it all went wrong
i was so complacent at the start of this disease
convinced we’d make it out of here with ease
now i’m an anxious mess, displace my veins with antifreeze
(and other remedies)

[pre+chorus]
but none of this was any of our faults
we were just sick and watching roaches climb the walls
‘common people’ is not so funny now you’re gone, is it?
please come back home

[chorus]
josephine
i’vе done everything you’vе ever asked of me
instead of always falling out
tell me what’s this all about
then she spoke
‘we watched the world collapse from our windows’
jose, there is no way that we could’ve known
so stay strong
you are the one girl
this is my promise to you
[verse 2]

at least i’ve got a little bit of weed
a chipped cigarette to sing myself to sleep
headphones tangled up resembling parts of you and me
and i know
what i did to make you so upset:
i was abrasively invasive and inept
spent two months’ wage on this guitar instead of rent
(i digress)

[pre+chorus]
we never needed much more to survive:
tinned food;
hydraulics;
water;
cyanide
in case we used up too much time
what i would do to make you mine again

[chorus]
josephine
i’ve done everything you’ve ever asked of me
instead of always falling out
maybe we could sort this out
and although we watched the world collapse from our front room
jose there was nothing more that we could do
without you i’ll be screwed
i’m locked out
as summer turns to autumn won’t you come around?
silence is an unholy sound
i’m so proud of you
so take your time
and know that i am sorry i stepped out of line;
i’ve been working overtime to ensure we make it through d614g

josephine (josephine)
josephine
come back to me please

[bridge]
i flip the switch which trips to hyper+speed
put in that polaroid of us from ’63
wires tangled up, will engines start on this machine?
i don’t know
what is it that made you so upset?
interconnection made me lazy i’ll admit
spent all we’d saved on propane, which i regret

[chorus/outro]
josephine
i’ve done everything you’ve ever asked of me
instead of always falling out
this time we could talk it out
if i’d known i’d watch your heart collapse
on my cracked phone
the last words i would say to you
before it froze are
i’m so proud of you
i’m so proud of you
this is my promise to you
