Friday Night

Paperclips, fingertips, plastic bags and clothing rips Canisters, bottle up, don't you think you've had enough I like this, it's alright, it's a way to pass the time June July August time, every Friday night at mine Hazy nights, distant crowds, speaker blasting through my house Wake up drunk, rinse repeat, lose track of the days and weeks People pass in and out, can't hear through the screams, shouts Pass out on some cotton sheets But when your lips touch mine I feel alive And when you let me go I tell you I'm fine To protect myself from all of my doubts and fears But I can't stand the lies hidden in your eyes I shouldn't care for this, you're neither hit nor miss I can't tell wrong from right, black blends with white with you dear It's summer and I'm staying here Build me up, knock me down, scream at me, don't make a sound Kick my shins, punch my teeth, argued every night last week Purgatory in my head, careful everywhere I tread I don't like your attitude But when your lips touch mine I feel alive And when you let me go I tell you I'm fine To protect myself from all of my doubts and fears But I can't stand the lies hidden in your eyes I shouldn't care for this, you're neither hit nor miss I can't tell wrong from right, black blends with white with you dear It makes me dream of the nights we had last summer Nights of endless warmth Inside our arms A time where things were easier than now So tell me when trying got so hard Drinking most nights, going out a lot Help me feel those feelings from the start My body likes these nights but not my heart Tell me when I stopped liking alcohol When did my body start feeling cold? Why am I trying to act bold When I dream of those nights last summer? Well it's summer and I'm staying here It's summer and I'm staying here It's summer and I'm staying here
