Lyrics for Proxy War

He don't have to get over her She don't to have get over him With all their words preserved forevermore You don't have to get over her She don't have to get over you It's true these two have never met before At least not in real life Where your words cut like a knife Conjuring blood, biblical floods Looks that stop time You don't have to remember We forget what memories are for Now we store them in the atmosphere If you don't want to get too close You don't have to get too close It's just what we're calling peer-to-peer You don't want to get over You don't have to get over We store them in the atmosphere If you don't want to get over her She don't have to get over you It's true these two have never met before At least not in real life Where your words cut like a knife Conjuring blood, biblical floods Looks that stop time If you don't want to get over her You don't have to get over her If you don't want to get too close You don't have to get too close If you want to remember If you don't want to get over If you don't want to get over If you don't want to get over
