The Middle Of July

(álbum: When The Smoke Clears - 2021)

We were running in the street
In the middle of July
This is the youngest that we'll be
In our soon forgotten lives
What if the family never comes?
What if it's you and me alone?
Would that ever be enough?
Could we be happy on our own?

I don't know how to live
Like this anymore

In the middle of July
There was no way out
We were caught in the summer
That went on forever
She was buried in the yard
As the sun went down
And you know it'll get better
But you can't remember how

I saw you holding up the phone
Can't hear that ringtone anymore
It's like it split open my chest
Before it knocked me on the floor
You were leaning on the glass
A poison arrow to the head
Somehow you had kept your balance
While I was face down on the bed

I don't know how to deal
With hope anymore

In the middle of July
There was no way out
We were caught in the summer
That went on forever
She was buried in the yard
As the sun went down
And you know it'll get better
But you can't remember how
