Mystery's Gone

(album: Nearsighted - 2018)

And I left because I saw my mother there
In your wrists, not your forehead or your hair
It was thin enough for gentle touch to break off a souvenir
So I left, and I left behind a mess

That I expected you to clean up
Who can I transfer this blame on now because

The mystery's gone
We waited so long
And I stupidly set a trap for me
Cause now that we know
Each other with no clothes
I'm wondering why it doesn't taste as sweet

"It's for the best" a familiar voice whispers
But your scent strives to lure me back to bed
I'm not strong enough to refuse a touch that promises happiness
But it's for a moment, and now there's nothing left

Now there's nothing left
Now there's nothing left

The mystery's gone
We waited so long
And I stupidly set a trap for me again
Now that we know
Each other with no clothes
I'm wondering why it doesn't taste as sweet
It doesn't taste as sweet
It doesn't taste as…

And in the dark we left a mark
Reshaped the way that we behaved
And if it's what we wanted
Why's it feel like we lost?

And in the dark with lowered guards
The words we used full of untruths
And if it's what we wanted
Why's it feel like we lost?

And in the dark we left a mark
Reshaped the way that we behaved
And if it's what we wanted
Why's it feel like we lost?

And in the dark with lowered guards
The words we used full of untruths
And if it's what we wanted
Why's it feel like we lost?
Why's it feel like we...
