Equinox

You in that flannel and that jean skirt Goddamn, you were a mean flirt Shirt always sliding off your shoulders Know I did my thing, I was going through the motions But I guess there’s couple things that I learned that night "Oh you make music?" yeah, you heard that right My only trick, played it through my phone speakers That night I didn’t see you had a Bonita We were making out in the crowded little alley And you held me by the hand I said something stupid Asked you to be exclusive for the summer Don’t blame me, I was drunk I’m glad I ain't bring you home I couldn't tell if it was something or just shots After 4 dates, you told me you had boyfriend And boy, then I had to pick my poison And I picked, I mean I didn’t know the guy Invite you to my home and I Laid you down, hoping I was stroking right Eyes dilated now, taking you in Not sure we ever finished that movie we played to begin Remember getting spirited away and running home in hail Trying not to kiss you in the lift but drunk on your exhale, we were Walking down that brick road, hoping it would go forever You retreated when the streetlights couldn’t show direction Drank the baijiu under stars then went back home and separated Gave me the impression we were over and then you texted Maybe if I only had you for that summer Left the darkness down the brick road undiscovered You were right There was nothing for us in the night When was the last time that we flirted Half the time, we’re burdens to each other Vagabonds with curfews Trapped inside a circle Every single fuckup’s a judgment on if I really love you Then you're pissed off, and it's pushing 'Til I start to wonder Fighting outside a Starbucks An old peddler lady offers a rose hoping to charm us We tell her to f*ck off You don't even look back at me as you call an Uber and make your departure God forgive me if I'm fifteen minutes late to see you You get angry, say "let’s breakup" then make me appease you Every time you’re upset, it’s split up cause you know I won’t leave you Run away to make me win you back so you can feel needed I'm seething in that empty alley where you’d found me in the crowd and yelling "You can't run from your problems" While walking behind you, I guess I always followed mine It’s just not the time when I can be all you want It'll never be Walking down the main road, knowing it’d be for the better I retreated when the streetlights gave me more direction Than you, I drank the vodka then we went back home and separated Gave me the impression we were over then you texted Maybe if I only had you for that summer Left the darkness down the brick road undiscovered You were right There was nothing for us in the night We always lived and died in the summer (In the summer) Left it all behind, living life under covers (Under covers) But the equinox always comes We did all we could to recover We always lived and died in the summer (In the summer) Left it all behind, living life under covers But the equinox always comes At least we made it through two summers
