a lucid dream

You look prettier in this light I prefer you in the background of an empty sky A body in the basement of a former life An anecdote I share to give some insight But now I can't escape the heat of July or its humidity And I don't miss the taste of you 'cause it's escaped my memory I know you started off sweet before you got bitter And I could tell it as a lie, or I could say what it is now Maybe you're a lucid dream I tried to keep locked up in my mind But you're just another casualty I tried to leave buried in the yard The grass under my feet, you blend into the scenery 'Til you're growing flowers on my lawn Maybe you're a lucid dream And I'm losing sleep tryna get back to my heart Close my eyes and take me to the start We were better out of context A momentary lapse that killed my common sense Some attention that I got to build my confidence I'm a sacrifice you made to your God complex Now I can't escape the heat of July or its humidity And I don't miss the taste of you 'cause it's escaped my memory And I know you started off sweet before you got bitter And I could tell it as a lie, or I could say what it is now Maybe you're a lucid dream I tried to keep locked up in my mind But you're just another casualty I tried to leave buried in the yard The grass under my feet, you blend into the scenery 'Til you're growing flowers on my lawn Maybe you're a lucid dream And I'm losing sleep tryna get back to the Heat of July and its humidity Taste of you, 'cause it's escaped my memory When the sun burns in the sky, it starts a smoldering And I'm losing sleep tryna get back to my heart Close my eyes and take me to the start Maybe you're a lucid dream I tried to keep locked up in my mind But you're just another casualty I tried to leave buried in the yard The grass under my feet, you blend into the scene 'Til you're growing flowers on my lawn Maybe you're a lucid dream And I'm losing sleep tryna get back to my heart
