August sun

I'm gonna treat this dark room like a confessional
I hope that's alright
Cuz I've gone too long keeping the bottle corked
On the storm in my mind
I know I've said many times that I'd be fine
But I'll set the record right, that was a lie

At least I think it was
But God, I can't tell
It was easy for the first five months
And now it's hell
I didn't feel a thing
When I cut the ties
Now you're seeping right back on into my mind

If I could've seen the end of the tunnel
I'd still be holding your hand
I admit it's my fault, but there's a lot to say
For circumstance
I didn't know what I was doing while I was doing it
Like a tornado tearing through it, I ruined it

At least I think I did
But God, I don't know
August sun to january snow
And it's the little things
That sink into me
I just walked by and you forgot to breathe

I just wanna make sure that you know
You're beyond beautiful
And you're the only one I've ever loved like that
If I could find one of the edges of this page
I would flip to that day
And I'd take it back

At least I think I would
But God, by now
I wouldn't have a prayer
So I might as well stay out
I know she makes your smile
Shine like the sun
And I'm still alive so that'll have to be enough
And I'm still alive so that'll have to be enough
