Negative Space - Hookworms

In a negative space, I wanna leave it

Turn around right as you’re leaving

The cruel mistake, I can’t believe it

You can’t trust now that you’re not breathing

A pain that’s no savior, a pain that’s not ours

I get it though, I get it though

They’re waiting on a troubled brow

And it’s lasted, oh, it’s lasted

And if they’re really watching this thing

Watch and not reacted

My gut sinks slow, my gut sinks slow

I sat in here for hours while I’ve thrown away you wrote

I cried in here for hours while I looked at what you wrote

Stop checking through the hour from the last time that we spoke

My gut sinks slow, my gut sinks slow

And if we’re really doing this and you’re sure it’s not a joke

How long’s forever?

How long’s forever?

All I thought to ask for, but now I’ll never know

If you hope for better futures, let’s just try to keep on going

And your body is for lasting, yeah it’s lasting

I’m sure it used to make you laugh but

Now you don’t react to it

My gut sinks slow, my gut sinks slow

I sat in there for hours trying to show you what I wrote

I waited here for hours just in case I hit the spot

My father waited for hours just to hear me play a note

How long’s forever?

How long’s forever?

How long’s forever?

How long’s forever?

And I still see you every time I’m down

My television’s cruelest blunder

I still hear you every time I’m down

Laughing like you won’t fall under

In a negative space, I wanna leave it

I turn around as you’re turning

In a negative space, I wanna leave it

You’re out we’re out, if you’re not returning

In a negative space, I can’t believe it

I’m turning round right as you’re turning

In a negative space, I wanna leave it

You’re out we’re out, if you’re not returning

I still see you every time I’m down

I still hear you every time I’m down

I still see you every time I’m down

I still hear you every time I’m down

I still see you every time I’m down

I still hear you every time I’m down

I still see you every time I’m down
