[Verse 1]

Hildrosa had me in the palm of her hand

Stalactite flowers made the ruins smell like Mom's perfume

And all the mommas before her

The excavation was gorgeous, illuminating, and awesome

But all I see are skeletons from two-thousand five-hundred thirty-million B.C

At some point, the aliens built Trumpian walls

Sequestering everybody in party-sized ossuaries

There was no more Cards Against Humanity at Dylan's house tonight

A hundred paces apart lay these commoners, unsexy

With shitty tastes in music and basic political takes

Buried under millennia of stuff I can't relate to


[Chorus]

Now you wouldn't believe this

But no one's ever told the truth

There's lightyears between us

No fucking way I'm trusting you

Now you wouldn't believe this

But you could never get to me

There's lightyears between us

So why'd we even try to meet


[Verse 2]

You haven't even said a word

Though you're running your mouth

In the noble pursuit of truth

Let's see what this guy has to offer to a million years of inconclusive, multicultural discourse

Let's get you a podcast (podcast)

And hip twenty-somethings from all across the nation will pretend

That you're bro-ing out with them


[Chorus]

Now you wouldn't believe this

But no one's ever told the truth

There's lightyears between us

No fucking way I'm trusting you

Now you wouldn't believe this

But you could never get to me

There's lightyears between us

So why'd we even try to meet


[Verse 3]

I'm tired of battling the suspicion

That nobody could ever mean anything real to me

These fragments of assholes pass through

With sound and fury and unfunny tweets I've already seen

Let's get me a big hole (big hole)

And all the awkward kids will glance down and see this little bitch with no life


[Bridge]

I flip-flop between thinking that music achieves nothing

And thinking that it can cause pain like you've never seen before

Well in either case I fucking hate you

Apparently, that web of lies that I created when we first met

Is getting torn down by a couple poorly-written verses

I'm sorry I guess


[Chorus]

Now you wouldn't believe this

But no one's ever told the truth

There's lightyears between us

No fucking way I'm trusting you

Now you wouldn't believe this

But all I ever wanted was a friend

There's lightyears between us

I'll keep on searching until the end


[Outro]

What are the odds we could align?
