Run does not count - 2

It’s easy to blame the other person in a breakup, but what about when your own complicity in a toxic dynamic comes to shake you awake? Objectively is about that haunting realization, soaring from a lilting acoustic opening to a full country-rock arrangement as the truth sets in.

Lyrics:

[Verse I]
never thought of my love as a loaded gun
but I'm objectively trying to take you down
'cause I always want your eyes on me
but then they're not on the road where they ought to be
and neither of us knew
and that's no excuse

[Verse II]
I can't say your name without feeling like
it will explode if I don't say it right
and tear a hole so wide that the whole world sees
and gets its own ideas about you and me
well, they don't understand
but don't they again?

[Chorus]
this is not how good love starts
this is not good love

[Verse III]
would have given my lungs to keep you around
but I'm objectively doing better now
because if I never dance with you
then I'm not second-guessing my every move
and I miss how it hurts
but isn't that worse?

[Bridge]
and this is my conclusion, honey
that you work better as a memory
because reality is messy
but we are dark objectively
I swear I meant the whole thing truly
but you work better as a memory
so honey, don't text me
so honey, don't text me

Ginger cream, sweet to taste
I don’t know how commonplace it is
to fantasize about someone for so long.
But to think another place or time,
we’d pull off victimless crime,
avoided all of this heartache
is real enough to dream about.

Do you think I
ever could 
rely on this?
It’s a feeling 
that’s escaped me in the past 
My hesitance is complicated.

(Some times I want you.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Don't get it wrong I still think about you all the time.
and now wonder if I’d even feel this way about you
If I hadn’t tried so hard to counterfeit the way you looked at him that night, 
in hindsight it's revealing.

Do you think I 
ever could
rely on this?
It's a feeling
that’s betrayed me in the past.
Romantic or
exaggerated?

(Some times I want to.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real if I think it.
Is it real enough to chance?
Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real enough I figure.

That's all I ever wanted from you (x8)
