Summer & Smoke

You came to me this morning
With red eyes glowing
Like my old pictures of you
And I love you in ways
I find too complicated
I can't take my eyes off of you

May I speak with you openly from here?
In this light, a kind of blue
If I don't say it now
You could be gone forever
Without knowing the truth

Wait, where do you go?
Can't I come too?
I don't feel alive
But when I'm with you
I really do
I need you

I still remember
The summer and the smoke
The ocean breeze on lips bruised
The person that you once knew fell into a fire
Blinded by the promise of you

May I speak with you openly from here?
In this light, a kind of blue
If I don't say it now
You could be gone forever
Without knowing the truth

Wait, please don't go
Can't I come too?
I don't feel alive
But when I'm with you
I really do
I need you

Sharing smokes out your bathroom window
I was ashamed of how you made my skin glow
I fell asleep as the smoke kept climbing higher and higher
My heart was the house you left burning in that fire

I don't feel alive
But when I'm with you
I really do, I really do
I really do, do, do
I need you
