Days that I went missing
Stumbled on a long walk somewhere
So many places we don't belong
So few we do
But you came around the corner with your arms wide
Said your favorite words to me despite everything
Lift to the clouds on haze or lantern flames
Shuffling off to sleep
To dream I'd never leave again
Shuffling off to sleep
To dream I'd never leave again
Summer shifting like a dream
Summer shifting like a dream for me
You go shuffling off to sleep
To places where you're hiding out
The anger in your eyes brightened like the lightning striking I was afraid to find
An older me alive in you
Afraid that I'd be blinded by the lightness of a good you never knew
And in the summer when I was angry, when I was tired, when I was scared
I just stared into nothing, I just stared into nothing
When I was worried, when I was tired, when I was angry or afraid
I just stayed in the same place for days
In the same place for days, in the same place for days
Shuffling off to sleep
Dream I'd never leave again
Shuffling off to sleep
Dream I'd never leave again
Silent by your own hands
You shake now when you speak
Hold tightly to your sleeping on the concrete of my dreams
And you go silent by your own hands
You break down and you leave
You go nightly with my panic
I get angry, I can't sleep
But in the summer I wasn't angry, I wasn't tired, I wasn't scared
I just stared into nothing
I just stared into nothing
I wasn't worried, I wasn't tired, I wasn't angry or afraid
I just paced throughout the days
Ran away from the days, ran away
To places where you're hiding out
The anger in your eyes brightened like the lightning striking, I was afraid to die
A bitter guilt inside of me
Afraid that you would go before I had the chance to show the good I know
And in the summer, we'll get a new home
I'll get a new start, I'll get to be a new better me now, a new better me
I won't be guilty, I won't be sorry, I won't feel angry every day
We'll just wait while the days run away
While the days run away, while the days run away
Shuffling off to sleep
To dream I'd never leave again
Shuffling off to sleep
Dream I'd never leave again
Shuffling off to sleep
