Deep breaths are rare More often ash drags through the streets I see those eyes on top of every mountain peak I used to look away when yours and mine would meet We'd watch wrinkled heartbeats sputter-crash against concrete
You held me firm and hollow for a flawless month I left my heart to blister in the August sun
I'd soon let it dry up before those blinding sunshine eyes If it meant I'd get to kiss your ink and collar one last time Close enough to singe my hair, but turn my body gold You're my midnight fireball Impossible to hold
