Summer Days

Summer Days
Slipped away
Breathing softly
As I come to hold your face

Time goes by
The shrill cry
Of insects
Makes your pretty face run my mind

Sun is blazing
Your eyes are glazed
Playing with your hair
As it turns to dark

Sit still
Sit still
Humming songs

Sit still
Sit still
The pain is gone

And I don't wanna die
And I can't see you cry
And I love this lie

Dripping juice
You don't move
Peachy eyes
Remind me what I left behind

Cigarettes
Messy hair
Remind me of the reasons
That I don't care

You're safe
I feel safe
So even though you're here
Why can't I stop crying?

It's okay
We're okay
Your body's so still
So tell me are you tired?

Sit still
Sit still
Humming songs

Sit still
Sit still
The pain is gone

And I don't wanna die
And I won't let you cry
And I love this lie

Red flowers bloom
And your perfume
Lingers long after
Your body's dried

I'll tell you once
'Cos you're the one
I love you
And that's all that matters to me
