with sunburns comes aloe, and a comforting pain
we are the only thing that can keep eachother sane

we have no real purpose, but to drink our thoughts away
we don't know where were going, so we'll smoke until we forget the day

we are not true beings, just pieces to one another
we would die for each other, but don't speak to our own mothers

our parents don't know where they went wrong
our failures sound to us, like the most beautiful song

with mosquito bites comes comfort, underneath our skin
the blood running through me is not a representation of my kin

call it disrespectful, call it what you must
but through these beautiful beings i have found astonishing trust

my family does not know me, nor does it interest them to try
but these beings i have found, they live to know why i want to die

in these long, hot months we only have each other
my blood doesn't need to run though you for me to call you my brother

we rejoice under the shining stars, astonished by the moon
we've never felt so whole, as we do together in this room

wherever we go, in this long hot summer
we will always know that we have one another

take me to mosquito land, where happiness awaits
these beings i have found, are surely part of my fait

— The End —
