July - Youth Lagoon

Explosions pillaging the night

From the fireworks on the fourth of july

It's just my lady our friends and I

Smoking cigars and yelling at cars as they drive by

We scaled a ladder ascending to the roof

While five years ago I weeped and no one knew

Holding my guitar I strummed a tune

I sang I love you but I have to cut you loose

As the neighbor lights off the small bombs we watch

From the rooftop safely so safely

If I had never let go then only god knows where I would be know

I made a bridge between us then I slowly burned it

Five years ago in my backyard I sang love away

Little did I know that real love had not quite yet found me
