lyrics

It's been gloomy
This summers had more clouds than most.
The water's still rising
It's coming up past the forms.
It was gold the way I made everyday all about you.
It was bold the way you said hey baby you've got nothing to lose.
If unrequited is your name
Then bad timing should be mine.
Refracting magnets
Will battle till the end of time.
Your black coffee
Has stained your teeth yellow with time.
Your cigarette stained lips
I know now will never be mine.
It got old the way you said
That forever was limited.
And broken hearts are just a way
To feel society again.
If unrequited is your name
Then bad timing should be mind.
Refracting magnets
Will battle till the end of time.// X2
