      Same exact same situation for me.. I had to break free from my ex with untreated BPD.. it was one of the hardest things ive ever done..

      Felt, I've had to break chains with alot of what I thought was close people.. and even people who was really close to me, but either way it was a hard tower moment to bare but just know the universe only takes away people places and things to give us better.. why?.. cause we deserve the moon and wanna be taken there!! I know I'm on a bigger better path and in a funny way can feel something coming I don't know what but it feels magical and so I thank the universe for what it has and is about to give me and most importantly I thank her for giving us waterparks and all their beautiful emotion felt music!!! 🌻🍓🦄

    I think this song truly shows how Knight has matured both as a songwriter and vocalist. Some of the softer notes that he is able to hit are ear candy. It is also what I believe is the most vulnerable song he has ever written. And I think sonically he is able to convey that message so well. The use of acoustic guitar, synths, and light drums is just perfect. This may be the best song that the band has ever made and released.

    i’m literally in love with lyrics cuz it’s so close to me, it’s something personal…it feels like someone just take my own feelings and put in the song. so good, i just can’t

    this song absolutely destroyed me in a way that I cannot explain. I just got out of an almost 5 year relationship, we are 20, been together since we were 15, by eachothers sides every moment we could be until suddenly things changed. The lyricism of loving someone but not knowing how to love them in the way that would make them realize or feel it most is how I felt for months on end, and "the eyes I gave up trying to captivate", during the end of our relationship, as much as I denied it and postponed the end and acted like it wasn't coming, I could very much see it near, and I just gave up and let her string me along because she didn't want to hurt me by leaving. this song gave me a hard cry, among all of othe other ones I've had about her these past few months.
    Thank you, awsten.

    [Verse 1]
    Nothing stays the same
    I feel love a different way
    So I contemplate the change
    I got my space but what'd I pay for you?
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Cause I love you
    Or I want to
    But I don't know how
    Because I need to really feel you
    But we're running around
    Because I love you
    Or I want to
    Is it easy now?
    You only hit me in the evening
    When I'm all stressed out
    [Chorus]
    I need you closer
    Or I need it over
    Either need you closer
    Or I need it over
    [Verse 2]
    There's nothing left to let go
    It's the darkest afterglow
    Maybe in another life
    We can try to get us right
    No, no, no
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Because I love you
    Or I want to
    But I don't know how
    Because I need to really feel you
    But we're running around
    Because I love you
    Or I want to
    Is it easy now?
    You only hit me in the evening
    When I'm all stressed out
    [Chorus]
    I need you closer
    Or I need it over
    Either need you closer
    Or I need it over
    [Bridge]
    Cause you're the holiday I celebrate too late
    You're the eyes I gave up trying to captivate
    You're the song that I loved, but then overplayed
    And I'm the b-side throwaway
    I hope you never rain on my charade
    The lonely one I let myself create
    I got my space but what'd I pay?
    I've been fucked so much that I no longer wait, I sabotage and break my own heart
    Just in case
    [Pre-Chorus]
    So yeah I loved you
    Or I tried to
    But I don't know how
    Used to need you
    And feel you
    But we ran it all down
    Cause I loved you
    Or I tried to
    Can we be easy now?
    Or will it kill me
    On the evening
    That I let you down?
    [Chorus]
    I need you closer
    Or I need it over
    Either need you closer
    Or I need it over

      @@roshanfey I'm not sure what sugary music is ,but oversaturated, that makes sense i mean he had a snapchat filter over his face the first few seconds of the video. The dislike of that lyric is a fair assessment. I believe it boils down to what type of man society says men should be which is the opposite of that line. Can you explain to me what sugary music?

    This song is so beautiful. My favorite song on Intellectual Property and maybe my favorite Waterparks song in general. The way so much emotion is conveyed and it doesn’t sacrifice anything musically with a great hook is so mind-blowing. Some of Awsten’s best vocals and Geoff absolutely killing it on guitar. Ottos drums remind me of an 80s ballad song, but it fits along to the melody.

    There are many Waterparks songs that have great lyrics. None though that feel like a Shakesperean tragedy/love story. Awsten shows yet again how captivating he can be with a pen and a sheet of paper.
    It’s not just the lyrics that make this song amazing. It’s the music behind the lyrics. It lets the words tell the story, but it sets the scene. The way it builds during the verse, letting you feel hope, and during the second verse where doubt creeps in. The anger of self-sabotage in the third.
    But what truly stands out to me and still brings me to the edge of tears in almost every listening of Closer, is the empty space between what remains of a simple guitar accompanied by the hauntingly quivering vocals at the end filled with mourning and loss.
    Awsten, thank you so much for giving this to us, 4 minutes to heart break.
