Your Visits Are Getting Shorter Lyrics

I can see it in your eyes now,
You have come to resent me
Condescension in the silence
Your fingers are tired girl,
How they falter against my thigh
Your kisses are pining for the lips of someone else

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting further from me
Your touch is getting colder
Always somewhere you need to be

Boys in blue blazers, boys on motorbikes
Boys in your math class who'll do anything you ask

You're pulling the trigger and the gun is in my mouth
A subtle annoyance laced with disgust
When you get older and those boys grow tired of you
You can come find me, I can never hate you

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting further from me
Your touch is getting colder
Always somewhere you need to be

Boys on your left side, boys on your right
Boys by your locker who'll do anything you ask

Lets spend the whole day in bed then
Cause if we don't you'll want to, want to leave
I try to hold something I can
I try to hold something I can never keep

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting further from me
Your touch is getting colder
Always somewhere you need to be

Boys on your left side, boys on your right
Boys by your locker who'll do anything you ask

My favourite off the new album. Upbeat, but with a sombre meaning of a relationship dwindling.

The intro is so Awesome! Great lyrics as well. About childhood school crush.

Also defo about a girl, as I think most of intimacy is. But others think not... Who knows.... Kele Knows

Anyone else think they were listening to Mistaken For Strangers when they wrote this? "Showered and blue-blazzered"

That definitely came to mind.

Yeah!!!!!! I read the lyrics before I listened to the song, and was like, wait, I already know this song...there can't be more than one song that says blue blazer in it. WTF CRAZY coincidence!

This is definitely my favorite song off the new album!

I also agree that it is about a dwindling relationship like mentioned above.
