about

Sort of a country number

lyrics

When you pulled me in and I pulled away
I could see you looking at the blankness of my face
I saw the horror in your surprise
Searching for a sign of life in the deadness of my eyes

I get close to love
But I never get close enough
The closer I get the stranger I get
It’s the uncanny valley of love

It’s almost real I’m almost a person
But I can’t feel what I’m supposed to feel I’m a bad animation
Who’s just going through the motions pretending I’m the same
I just can’t summon the emotions and there’s no one else to blame

I get close to love
But I never get close enough
The closer I get the stranger I get
It’s the uncanny valley of love

I can get angry
And I can get sad
And I get sorry
About losing the good thing
That I almost had

And I can get lonely
I’ve been lonely since you left
You’d love me when I’m all along
It’s when I’m at my best

I get close to love
But I never get close enough
The closer I get the stranger I get
It’s the uncanny valley of love
