Like are you kidding "you asked to walk me home// but I had to carry you" Jude and Willem.
"but now I am dreaming// and your singing at my birthday// and I've never seen you smiling so big" - Jude singing for Harold and Willem- ("You have a beautiful voice, though you never sing anymore.")
"If i could give you the moon// I would give you the moon" I MEAN COME ONNNN, Willem and Harold practically dedicated their life to Jude even though he rejected their love because all he has ever known is pain.
"you're sick... you might be dying" (big f u to Dr Traylor)
"You're holding me like water in your hands" - Jude being so terrified of those he loves (especially Willem and Harold), so being so fragile and scared around them.
and also Saviour complex - "All the bad dreams that you hide// show me yours, I'll show you mine"
"All the skeletons that you hide"
It is literally Willem trying to get Jude to tell him the truth of his past. So heartbreaking.
