I pray you burn the wood you carved us into, because I'm tired of fighting this fire alone. You've roasted our love away, carving us into a childhood bunk bed and praying we stay past our adolescent phase. I want to kiss you under our initials, show you how heated I can get under your gaze, smolder the letters of my name because I don't belong on bunk beds. I belong in backseats, and kissing behind your mothers back when she's making us dinner. I belong as a secret, I belong on letters you were never suppose to send. Lick the envelopes with love you aren't suppose to have for me, tell your mother it's a platonic relationship and your father I was the kind of girl you'd marry. I don't belong on bunk beds, so don't put me above your head.

We're adolescents
I pray you burn the wood you carved us into, because I'm tired of fighting this fire alone. You've roasted our love away, carving us into a childhood bunk bed and praying we stay past our adolescent phase. I want to kiss you under our initials, show you how heated I can get under your gaze, smolder the letters of my name because I don't belong on bunk beds. I belong in backseats, and kissing behind your mothers back when she's making us dinner. I belong as a secret, I belong on letters you were never suppose to send. Lick the envelopes with love you aren't suppose to have for me, tell your mother it's a platonic relationship and your father I was the kind of girl you'd marry. I don't belong on bunk beds, so don't put me above your head.
