Summertime Low

(album: All The Ways You Sing In The Dark - 2020)

Took it back in time
Take it in your stride
The mother in your mind
Are you saving a life

The tides are coming in slow
Everything is unknown
Just need you at home
You had every right

I wanna be well but don't wanna try
All I can hear is my daughter cry
The weight of the sun is making me thin
Burning my skin

Wish I could see autumn
The way I've been falling
I wanna be free
Carelessly me
It's summertime low
With everything golden
It's hard to be open
I'm missing your touch
Not alone but enough
To have a summertime low

You know I'll never miss the smell
Of your obvious tell
Or your shit magic spells
The stars do not care

Wish I could see autumn
The way I've been falling
I wanna be free
Carelessly me
It's summertime low
With everything golden
It's hard to be open
I'm missing your touch
Not alone but enough
To have a summertime low

I wanna be well but don't wanna try
All I can hear is my daughter cry
The weight of the sun is making me thin
Burning my skin, wish I could hear
All of the ways you sing in the dark
Brutally honest but always harsh
Weight of the world is breaking my back
Where were you at?

Wish I could see autumn
The way I've been falling
I wanna be free
Carelessly me
It's summertime low
With everything golden
It's hard to be open
I'm missing your touch
Not alone but enough
To have a summertime low
