  • This is like the dream of my entire life.

  • Yeah, we say it at home when we watch these.

  • No, literally, like I would, when we were writing it, I would like go to bed fantasizing about this.

  • So the fact that it's real, I was driving, I was clutching that wheel.

  • I was literally like, I can't believe my life is real.

  • Like, so thanks.

  • Thanks.

  • Thanks.

  • Thanks.

  • We met at my fifth grade graduation.

  • We then went to middle school together and we sat on the bus on the way to school together like every day.

  • Yeah, and we would sing.

  • Plus by Ed Sheeran.

  • Yeah, we'd listen to Plus by Ed Sheeran and Super Bass.

  • I've never had a connection with a person in the way that I do with you.

  • We skip like 10 levels of speaking to each other and it's just like in tongue.

  • And I think that's why this music came out the way it did.

  • Yeah, because it's like you don't I don't have to say anything to you.

  • It's just simply a look.

  • Or a touch.

  • Yeah, or a touch even.

  • Don't get it twisted, though.

  • We're just friends.

  • Yeah, like, come on.

  • Look at me now, said I wouldn't do it, but I hunted you down.

  • Know you had a girl, but it didn't work out.

  • Know you bought a house, but you had to move out and...

  • I had a huge crush.

  • So I would come downstairs in the morning, like talking about it.

  • Yeah.

  • And we just started writing this song.

  • I think it's setting yourself up as I know how ridiculous I look immediately.

  • Like, this can't be me, you know, but it was.

  • I'm not proud, guess I'm just scared of you shooting it down.

  • You can just talk and I'll stare at your mouth.

  • It could be bad, but I want to find out and...

  • I think my favorite line in the first verse is, you can just talk and I'll stare at your mouth.

  • To be like, it doesn't matter what you're saying.

  • I'm just going to like look at you kind of speaks to how little context there is for the relationship, the non-existent relationship.

  • It's this kind of like infatuation based in very little other than knowing that you like what they look like.

  • And I wake up in the middle of the night with the light on and I feel like I could die because you're not here and I don't feel right because you're not here.

  • The pre-chorus is like the feverish feeling of having a crush so big that it's interrupting your sleep pattern.

  • Like, that's disgusting.

  • It's not based in anything, but it's this like desperation for it to be tangible.

  • Yeah.

  • For you to be in the same room or the same bed as someone that you are falling for, that you think you're falling for or whatever.

  • Alternatively, it's like, you know, when you fall asleep with all the lights on accidentally and you wake up at 3 a.m.

  • Like, what's your first thought?

  • Mine is always like, who's here to kill me?

  • And I feel like I could die.

  • Yeah.

  • Like haunted.

  • Yeah.

  • But I, in my mind, I'm like, I'm haunted by the lack of this person.

  • You're like, I'm someone's going to kill me.

  • Haven't even met him.

  • Watch this be the wrong thing.

  • Classic.

  • When we wrote, God, I'm actually invested, could be translated to what, why, how am I here right now?

  • Watch this be the wrong thing.

  • Classic isn't just knowing yourself, I think.

  • I know what's going to happen.

  • I know it's going to happen.

  • Like, I might feel this way, but like, ha ha, it's fine.

  • Like, I'm I see it and I know it's crazy and I know myself.

  • And, you know, it's both true and also a tool to get hurt less.

  • God, I'm jumping in the deep end.

  • It's more fun to swim in.

  • Heard the risk is drowning, but I'm going to take it.

  • The second half of the hook, jumping in the deep end.

  • God, I'm jumping in the deep end.

  • Then we laughed because we were like, it's more fun to swim in.

  • It's more fun to swim in.

  • We were just like, oh, oh, oh.

  • No one wants to be like splashing around in the shallow end unless you're a baby.

  • Like, and yeah, don't be a baby.

  • Yeah, we're not babies.

  • Yeah, we're adults.

  • Yeah, we're going to go in the deep end.

  • Yeah, we're going to go there.

  • See you in the deep end.

  • Yeah, see you there.

  • It's so like daydreaming.

  • You're just imagining a scenario in which this person is finally approaching you and gets there and is so floored by you that they're just fucking speechless.

  • And it's like, it's like, I think that's cute.

  • Yeah.

  • Like, that's so dumb.

  • Like, that's crazy.

  • It's like so crazy.

  • Because also, like, the last thing I feel like either of us want is for a guy to fling open the door and be speechless.

  • Like, say something really cool about it.

  • Exactly.

  • Make me laugh.

  • I wish you could hold me, you're shaking, you're the risk, I'm going to take it.

  • Why aren't you here in my bedroom, hopelessly boring, without you?

  • Too soon to tell you I love you.

  • Too soon to tell you I love you.

  • It's not real love, like what we're talking about.

  • It's all crazy.

  • It's all like, in summary, I love that we screamed it.

  • Mm-hmm.

  • Because it's like, oh, it's too soon, but I'm going to be as loud as I possibly can when I'm asking you this question.

  • So you hear me.

This is like the dream of my entire life.
