Summer Sucks - Shallows

It’s better to want you than to have you

The fragile things will break if they fall

It’s easy to call you when I can’t get through

But everything is cool overall

It’s better to want you than to have you

Your taste is just too rich for my tongue

You’re so easy to get to when I won’t let you

See the travesty that we could become

What you see with your eyes, it’s a lie

So what if we give up

Selling out for the summer

Fighting the heat and learning to sleep alone

So what if we’ve got love

We can live without it

Your heart’s gonna burn but you’ll learn to let it go

Your words are golden, but we are corroding

Save it for when we are apart

I can’t control it when we’re in the moment

But you hold me down with every beat of your heart

We’ve woven all our patterns and we’ve savored all we’ve sewn

But where do we go from knowing every inch of each other?

It’s better to want you than to have you

I just keep telling myself over and over

What you see with your eyes, it’s a lie

So what if we give up

Selling out for the summer

Fighting the heat and learning to sleep alone

So what if we’ve got love

We can live without it

Your heart’s gonna burn but you’ll learn to let it go

You gotta learn to let it go
