how it started - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I got high and died today, at least that's how it felt

Mixed up way too many things

And I felt my heart beat way too fast again

It made you feel so far away and yet, you were on my breath

I think last words are overrated

I want mine to be your name, baby

I tried to make our love feel like the first time again

I like how it started, overwhelming

Gentle seas, fuck that, you’re a tempest

And maybe things just seemed a little better in my head

But the way I smiled on thе drive home

From your place was dеfinitely real, love

Don't go, I don't wanna cry

Before someone calls my phone

And I lie and tell ’em I'm fine

All the while I always think they know

I'm lost somewhere on the spine

Of a book that you and I wrote

That's fading away with time

On the shelf, above the fireplace

I got high and died today, at least that's what I hoped

But I woke up from a nightmare

Sat up way too fast and it ruined my morning

Traffic on the interstate, took a long time getting home

It went faster with you in my passenger seat

Instead, I'm sitting here daydreaming

I wish you tried to make our love feel like the first time again

I like how it started, overwhelming

Gentle seas, fuck that, you're a tempest

And maybe things just seemed a little better in my head

But the way I smiled on the drive home

From your place was definitely real, love
