Cold Summer

Your teeth too big for your mouths
 Every summer we'd pull the stinger out
 Drinking like our parents did
 Drunk at the dance, I knew you'd hid
 Picture of her eyes under your skin
 She wasn't old enough to let love in
 I can see your eyes turn blue
 I can see the weather changing you
 Cold summers, one after the other
 Got old fast, grew tired of each other
 Born across from you
 Proud sleepless child, followed her
 It's getting harder to find it in me
 Bite my lip and fall asleep
 But now, but now can be
 Falling down
 Filling, filling the empty
 She could sing to shipmen
 I lay my eyes on you
 Down where we grew lost
 Find your mouth and winter skin
 It's getting harder to find it in me
 I scab my wounds and fall asleep
 But now, but now can be
 Falling down
 Filling, filling the empty
