Lyrics
We were two stars in a binary system
Too close to leave, too far to fix it
Just a different light, a different mass
A beautiful collapse
[Verse 1]
Scrubbing the limestone floors on Dunthorpe Lane, July 2019.
The whole house smelled like money and lemon-scented bleach.

[Chorus]
We were two stars in a binary system
Too close to leave, too far to fix it
Just a different light, a different mass
A beautiful collapse
[Outro]
A beautiful collapse…
