Everyone I Know Who Skis is Dead

Another summer down, gone up in smoke
Like old songs on the radio
I tune you out like you never turned me on
I spin my wheels to make your heart feel full
Up all night on my patio
Talking about the things we could have been

And all I know is what I'm shown
I'll put myself right out there
Ready for the worst, an addict of continued hurt
And you bottle your true colors for
Another night wasted with me and your plastic vulnerability

I'm sitting in the back of your mind Because I'm better as a memory, (better as a memory)
Cut it off before I'm wounded
And we're consumed, it's
Too much for me to try
All is well when well is faking
Set your ego on the shelf
And come on back down to earth

Another winter down, frost bit and hurt
Like flames setting off fireworks
We flared them up to watch the sky explode
I tried to dial down the intensity
But you should have gotten rid of me
Burn my page in your book of history

Measure your worth by those you've loved before
Suck the poison out, I'm better now
You're made of lead and you bring me down
Your worth by those you've loved before
I'm better off going alone
Because the bridge you burned was your way home

I'm sitting in the back of your mind Because I'm better as a memory, (better as a memory)
Cut it off before I'm wounded
And we're consumed, it's
Too much for me to try
All is well when well is faking
Set your ego on the shelf
And come on back down to earth
