lyrics

Last time you came here sun was coloring the trees green
You said the summer over there was way too hot
You looked for work here in the cradle of our longing
And it surprised me ’cause we both detest this spot

But while in this spot I’ve been working on my cabin
You worked your way down through the cellars of the south
And for a mind like yours, their beauty is like poison
And I believed that I could hear it from your mouth

Where you’ve been my sweetest friend
Will I ever comprehend
Just what could bend

Such a straight road, that for you I held for certain
Round here I always thought the one with plans were you
But since you left for unknown shores for unknown reasons
It seems the decadence has torn up what I knew

While I endured my Mondays all your days were Fridays
And though I envied you I hoped that all the time
That I’ve been longing for the fire in your brain cells
I hoped my friend that you were dying to put it out

And through the clouds I see a hint of ancient wisdom
I know it’s still in you, I’ve known it all the time
Your mind is delicate; I know it is a burden
And you can’t see it, all the beauty left behind

And as the summer passed, the images were brought out
A mix of memories was crushed under the news
And jealous, worried and still lacking your experience
I righteously accused you

Cause I endured my Mondays while your days were Fridays
And though I envied you I hoped that all the time
That I’ve been longing for the fire in your brain cells
I hoped my friend that you were dying to put it out
