about

This song was originally called "I talk to Bob" as a reference to a scene in "American Splendor", but a friend of mine hated the name so passionately that I was compelled to change it. I'm still not sure if it was worth it...

lyrics

I am making all this noise to avoid calling your name.
It's a dilution of fears, a spurt of growth that's caused by pain.
And in my nightmares I am still there; in the house where I made ghosts.
And I hate seeing your doorway and I hate feeling you close.
Because as close as you may get, you are still so far away.
And I feel selfish that I just can't bring myself to watch you fade away.

All this growth's sure to be the death of me.
