So Long July
Lizzie And The Cannibals
Love drunk junkie
Space case faux freak
Sleep on your chest
Black ash fallin' down my cheek
Like the night on Sun's heat
Hotel love me
Mourning loser's disease
I expect nothing
I'm bare there at your feet
Pour your salt down on me
Till neon cracks tar streets
Ripped through by morning
Gas station coffee
And routine zombies
In street cars, it follows me
Through my backseat, sobering
To my bedside, holy
With shame, black and heavy
(So long) July
And the heat of summer daze
(My fruit) past ripe
I can't seem to throw away
Once too sweet, sits with bruised teeth
Marked its soft and sugar sloppiness
Oh, and as I weep for heat's peace
Flames burn the city I never lived
Born a blue baby
Crying, don't save me
I'm off on the move
It's how you lose the blues
Outrun my gentle mood
But I've been ugly
A child of my country
But they just don't get me like I need them to
And what can you do?
Desert valleys, heat of Mexico
I'll cut my loss and off I'll go
'Cause I've gone blue in my Midwest cold
My skin's gone grey like Sun-bleached roads
It tends to creep, like a shadow soul
Resting deep beneath the skull
It borne my grief, it groans and moans
To where I leave is where it goes
(So long) July
And the heat of summer daze
(My fruit) past ripe
I can't seem to throw away
Once too sweet, sits with bruised teeth
Marked its soft and sugar sloppiness
Oh, and as I weep for heat's peace
Flames burn the city I never lived
(No, no, I never lived)
As I weep for heat's peace (I never lived)
I go cold in another's lonesome bed (I never lived)
As I weep for heat's peace (I never lived)
Time wastes on words I already said (I never lived)
As I weep for heat's peace
I go cold in another's lonesome bed (I never lived)
As I weep for heat’s peace
