Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
And sometimes I dream you've left me
And I'm so lost I wake up high
High on madness
A sexual holding pattern
Stuck in erotic self-oscillation
This landmine of a heart
The only one I've ever had
I've ever had

[Chorus:]
Conceptual romance is on my mind
I call it abstract romanticism
Conceptual romance is you
It's you and I
It's you and I

[Verse 2:]
This blood bitch's tale
It goes a bit like this:
I lose myself in the rituals of bad art, in failure
I want to give up but I can tell
My heartbreak is too sentimental for you

[Chorus:]
Conceptual romance is on my mind
I call it abstract romanticism
Conceptual romance is you
It's you and I
It's you and I

[Verse 3:]
So I lose my gaze to keep you
Creating a curve for the eyes
A rejected body
And losing it is constant, but such a lonely place
What can I say?
I don't know who I am, but

[Bridge:]
I'm working on it
I'm working on it
I'm working on it
I'm working on it
I'm working on it

[Verse 4:]
I'm high, high on madness
These are my combined failures
I understand infatuation, rejection
They can connect and become everything
Everything that's torn up in your life
But come with me, I want to show you something
The original wound, the origin of the world
Of the world
Of the world
(I'm working on it)
(I'm working on it)
Of the world
