[Verse 1]
I try to be clever
To outrun the thought of you
But end up in the ember
Breathing in the lasting fumes
I shouldn't bother
'Cause our love is honey gone to waste
With no best by date
[Verse 2]
Now I hate the summer
Or at least this mid July
And the sight of a number
That I've called a million times
Eyes sharp like a hunter
For anybody I can make out in this room
That looks a bit like you
[Chorus]
I know it's crazy, tell me off
But this open casket love
Is taking me down, down
Looking just like I remember it, dear
You painting all my golden years
Now this town can go ahead and burn
As far as I'm concerned
[Verse 3]
'Cause it houses a roof where
I couldn't catch my breath
Me drunk on a lawn chair (So drunk)
You in between my legs
My hands in your dark hair
The distant city lights like a birthday cake
With every wish I'd ever made
[Chorus]
I know it's crazy, tell me off
But this open casket love
Is taking me down, down
Looking just like I remember it, dear
You painting all my golden years
Now this town can go ahead and burn
As far as I'm concerned
[Bridge]
I can't even think about moving on
Not when the body, it still feels warm
Not when every other voice just sounds wrong
Screaming my name
I can't turn down no any old street
Anywhere I go, it's haunting me
Like the best and the worst damn memory
Not giving me grace
Did you really think you'd leave without a trace?
[Chorus]
I know it's crazy, tell me off
But this open casket love
Is taking me down, down
Looking just like I remember it, dear
You painting all my golden years
Now this town can go ahead and burn
