The Homecoming - Summer Nights

You're standing there
A far cry from the crime scene, oh
You wouldn't be caught dead there
I'm the cracks in the street, crumbling under your feet
From stepping over me
This isn't a hole in my chest, it's just where you go

All those summer nights
On your bedroom floor
We took for granted sometimes
Honestly honest, honest to god
I'm no savior
But maybe I can save myself
You're in my veins
My heart beats black and blue

It's always over
Don't wanna see this town again
I'm sinking lower
Much deeper than I've ever been
I'll stitch together our pages
And tether myself to the mast
Take me out with the tide
The waves wash me away

All those summer nights
On your bedroom floor
We took for granted sometimes
Honestly honest, honest to god
I'm no savior
But maybe I can save myself
You're in my veins
My heart beats black and blue

Honestly honest, honest to god I'm no savior
(Honestly honest, honest to god)
Honestly honest, honest to god
I'm no, I'm no

You take the flowers from my casket and put them in your hair
(It's always over, don't wanna see this town again)
Like the tattoos that remind us that we're still here
(I'm sinking lower, much deeper than I've ever been)
You take the flowers from my casket and put them in your hair
(It's always over, don't wanna see this town again)
Like the tattoos that remind us permanence isn't fair
