lyrics

My drought begins with lips of stone
And your skin beneath my aching tongue
And a lack of light for a lack of clothes but
I'm the very thing Ioath

I always loved it when you sang
And you always love it when it rained all day
So I learned to love the clouds
It's funny how I need them now
The summer comes and goes
Just like your love it always ends up cold

I'll leave little bits of me
My voice still on the phone
And I'm not leaving here a monster
I'm leaving here a ghost
She opened up her skin
So I could wallow in her bones
And now I'm driving off of bridges
Cause the wreckage feels like all I know

Slow eyes roll over
Your cigarette stained skin
Steering wheel in your hand
And my skin cells on your lips
And I'll stick around
Just like yesterday's cologne
I'll smoke away my health
Because depression feels like home
And I'll try and write it out
But in the end I always know
I wrote myself into a noose
Because I'm scared to let you go

I'll leave little bits of me
My voice still on the phone
And I'm not leaving here a monster
I'm leaving here a ghost
She open up her skin
So I could wallow on her bones
And I'm driving off of bridges
Cause the wreckage feels like all I know

The only way to keep my story straight
Is to repeat it in my head every second of the day
