lyrics

The air that night was made of lightning in the smoky twilight
I was absorbing the energy through osmosis
My feet moved with purpose
My actions impulsive
But I do not regret
I do not regret
Do not regret, do not regret, do not regret
Do not regret

The sky divided in two hues
The bottom orange the top blue
And though the moon was not full
It reminded me of you
And all I remember are the stars and the night skies
And the icy blue of your eyes
It’s the icy blue of your eyes



I could not speak ill of you if I tried
If I cared to try
I could not speak ill of you
If I cared to try. If I dared to try


I’m a masochist for your affection
Observing you eases the pain
Brings a smile to my face
All those smiles on my face as I lay in the lemon juice.
My thick skin and my open wounds, laying in the lemon juice, the lemon juice

The sting reminds me of the scratches that you gave me all those nights under glitter skies
The stars remind me of your eyes locked on mine full of affection and desire
That first night by the fire when your
Whole body melted into me
You were bashful at my gaze and I sang to you
And you kissed me to shut me up
And you kissed me to shut me up
And you kissed me to shut me up
Fill my cup, fill my cup overflowing with strength
Strength and emotion
You spoke of such devotion and I’m left a better person for it all
I can’t fall I can’t fall
I can’t fall I can’t fall I can’t fall
I can’t fall I just burn I just burn full of love love love
I just burn full of love love love

I could not speak ill of you if I tried
If I cared to try
You broke my heart, but I’m fine
I’m fine
Deep down inside I am fine
Deep down inside I am fine

That night I sat upon a child’s swing
And swayed to the soundtrack of us
It left something to be desired as the energy calmed
Light-polluted
The night was light-polluted, so I could not see you
You were not here
The swing was not the same swing
My legs were not around you
My lips were not pressed against your skin

But still, there was pretty water
And colorful skies
I danced alone
I danced alone
I danced alone, but a little restored
With a slice of my heart reserved for you.
