lyrics

How is it only Wednesday? I could sleep through the whole week
The intoxicating summer heat burned us a mix CD
The first track was No Rain and the last was Ride the Sky
Lightning Bolt has always been the best music to lose your mind to

Saw it coming from a mile away
A catastrophic private judgment day
That would last all summer
Our brains would boil into bitter slime
Our clocks would bleed out every drop of time
Till there was no time left

We held the funeral of a lifetime for ourselves and got bombed
We treated it more like Halloween - costumes and shots of gasoline
Down our gullets and back up when we tried dancing for too long
We drowned our sorrows brought on by the chaos of a world that we thought would be full of love

And pretty quickly we began to fall
The sun was closer than we could recall
It ever having been
Our bodies laying out with streamers and
Confetti, paper plates and Old Style cans
And we could see ourselves from above
As we became one with the sun

The backyard looked pretty great with new red paint and decor
BYORPAD and it's yourselves, so don't ask me
We reunited months later and watched snow cover the town
When it got too dark to see, we cuddled up in the sun and we went to sleep

We watched the UFOs across the way
We watched the rings of Saturn start their day
Oh, we could see it all
But still we kind of missed the cold, cruel Earth
And we'd forgotten what it's like to burn
And to feel relief when the cold front comes
