Sunburn Fades

(album: Ultrapure - 2023)

Did you pass out that night
When the band drove you home?
Heard I missed the stage dive
I was crying alone
And I thought I'd lose it
When you all hit Broadway
Even good friends fuck up
Sometimes you learn the hard way

Discoveries of these twenty-somethings
There ain't been nothing ain't been said before
There is that voice in the back of my head
Saying if you don't like it there's the door
I can't take it anymore

If I go would I be
Someone's anything?
Somehow everything
Could I settle for less?
I feel blessed, I feel cursed
That everything hurts
But at least I'm free
To get it off of my chest

Remember that drive
When the AC went out
Couldn't hear the music
Screaming and sweating it out
And summer won't end
If we don't let it
But I need you here to kill this fear
That when the sunburn fades we'll all forget this

Discoveries of these twenty-somethings
You never quite forget the first letdown
There is that voice in the back of my head saying
Hold onto those who stick around
And you'll make it out

If I go would I be
Someone's anything?
Somehow everything
Could I settle for less?
I feel blessed, I feel cursed
That everything hurts
But at least I'm free
To get it off of my chest

Does it get better than this?
It will or it won't and we'll just get used to it
Does it get better than this?
It will or it won't and we just get used to it
Does it get better than this?
It will or it won't and we just get used to it
