about

Wait a few seconds after the song ends for a sax quartet written/performed by Chris Veilleux for this EP's closing sound.

lyrics

We were just protons
Particles colliding
Touched for a second
Mad for a minute
Then bounced separate ways

I was just angry
Pissed at myself
And you don't deserve it
The heat off my conscience
Raining on your parade

Now I'm waiting for someone to come
To black out the sun
And bring on the clouds
It's never or now
AS you're floating away
Into empty space
And I'm singing I love you
I love you

We were just protons
Particles kissing
Connected for an instant
Regret for a lifetime
But that's still okay

Outside is foggy
We go inside
I'll grab a blanket
She likes my new jacket
Even though it's too wide

Her eyes are sparkly
Her hands are my size
She's better than you were
She acts as my mirror
And I don't have to lie
When I say I love you
I love you
Goodnight
