Lemon

about

From my upcoming EP, "Reaching."

lyrics

why keep writing these songs out of hope
like they’re magic spells, my power can hurt
when i took my last breath in you, i choked
will you come around and tell me you don't smoke?

i’m terrified of getting behind the wheel again
one too many nightmares have ruined it for me
i packed the witch’s hat in the box by the stairs
i’ll savor wearing it in new york city

(chorus)
am i less of a friend to you?
pull back the curtain
i bit more than i can chew
made me feel like dried lemon peel
like you never knew me
and i don’t know you

you shake your head, i felt my kindness slip like sand
so much for saying “sorry,” i’m a stranger at your party
one day the blood will dry, i won’t always feel my life go by
without me

am i less of a friend to you?
pull back the curtain
i bit more than i can chew
made me feel like dried lemon peel
like you never knew me
and i don’t know you
