Summer of Lust
It's safe to say this night has opened
My eyes and I will never see you
The same way I used to
The same way I used to
You are warm and solid, but cold on the inside
And you veins feel like, hell freezing over
I feel like forgiveness is something you're owed
But I haven't got there yet and my resentment still shows
So when you lay down tonight
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
I'm wishing you were dead
Your summer of lust left much to be desired
And I'm picking up the pieces but damn I'm so tired
Of you hiding behind Morrissey's words and Keats' sonnets
You're not half the person or half of the profit
You pretend to be when we're alone
And it's like pulling teeth trying to let go
And I'm so overworked, my voice has gone to hell
But I won't give up on you if it's something I can help
So when you lay down tonight
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
I'm wishing you were dead
So when you lay down tonight
(Burn it all to ash and start it anew)
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
(I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through)
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
(Burn it all to ash and start it anew)
I'm wishing you were dead
(I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through)
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
My eyes and I will never see you
The same way I used to
The same way I used to
You are warm and solid, but cold on the inside
And you veins feel like, hell freezing over
I feel like forgiveness is something you're owed
But I haven't got there yet and my resentment still shows
So when you lay down tonight
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
I'm wishing you were dead
Your summer of lust left much to be desired
And I'm picking up the pieces but damn I'm so tired
Of you hiding behind Morrissey's words and Keats' sonnets
You're not half the person or half of the profit
You pretend to be when we're alone
And it's like pulling teeth trying to let go
And I'm so overworked, my voice has gone to hell
But I won't give up on you if it's something I can help
So when you lay down tonight
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
I'm wishing you were dead
So when you lay down tonight
(Burn it all to ash and start it anew)
And listen to the records you've played a thousand times
(I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through)
Just know when I'm blowing out the candles on my cake
(Burn it all to ash and start it anew)
I'm wishing you were dead
(I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through)
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
Burn it all to ash and start it anew
I wanted to believe but somehow it never got through
