this song is 100% ironic detachment and the anxiety that comes with it
lyrics
writing letters hasn’t ever made me feel less lonely
looking back on photographs that make the past seem phoney
pour the liquid in its glass tilt back and drink it slowly
when it’s done there is no fun still acting dumb
when it’s been nice to know you
sending postcards in the mail is just my way of choking you up
making stories up that suck just so you know I’m joking
as you lit your cig up with a match don’t tell me you’re still smoking
when this is over we’ll be older, broke, and sober
it’s been nice to know you
every winter i come in here where i’m sure she saw me
rolling papers in my corner like a slow tsunami
there’s no boat, no coat, no life support to strap right on me
when we fall overboard don’t follow me, don’t bother
it’s been nice to know you
