lyrics

Read your name, it sounded overpriced
Something archangel, but a poltergeist
Spent a little time, you were bonafide
A sight to see as two flames collide
I… tried… fell victim, crucified
Lies, they rise as truth subsides
You know, the truth it hurts,
But lies multiply
And then they cultivate
With every risk we’d take
It’s like another shot with just another blank
Another firework flash, then bang
A hit to the brain, the stars shine, we fade
The breeze feels amazing, with the moonlit haze
Let your mind get crazy, till the ground is wavy
Once the world’s rotated, just kiss the pain away

In the dead Summer nights,
We’d get closer to that high
Then the bleeding from your eyes
Worked like stimuli for mine

Lines were crossed,
Spelled it out on Word,
Your words’ bold, embossed
Love set in
Cloaked with motocross
Loss, the uncertain felt
As though a certain pain
Was just stashed away
For my future self
Unlike Van Allen Belt
It was something else
Thought toxicity
Was just conspiracies we’d placed on ourselves
But I was wrong
Wrote it down
Until the sound was nothing more than just an eighth note drowned
Thought it made you smile whenever I’d come ‘round
But I was wrong
Typed five, five, pound to activate the heart
And let the cell tower ground
It was more than lust, it was built on trust,
But we were wrong

In the dead Summer nights,
We’d get closer to that high
Then the bleeding from your eyes
Worked like stimuli for mine

Got me really floatin’, now I’ve come alive,
Seein’ purple skies, colors magnified
Let me change your life, look into my eyes
You see purple skies

In the dead Summer nights,
We’d get closer to that high
Then the bleeding from your eyes
Worked like stimuli for mine

We were young, we were incomplete
Brush it off, hearts entropy
You got the best of me
