Tar Lyrics by ARI BLU

Petrichor

2023

"Look at the moon"
You said "It's just another light"
I rest my tongue beneath my teeth
But I think I might
Hold it against you
For the sake of killing time
We're watching the grass grow
Tar fills our minds

Rusted throats and cherry noses, just another night
We drove down PCH with tangies and limes
You're a silent killer, and I'm just the type
To pass all my limits just to see what I find

By the way, baby
I've seen you on the internet
But in the flesh
I feel like we've never met

When you dance, don't do it for me
When wе kiss, do it as you please
In the night, don't do it for thе screen
(And you've been wishing you were someone else)
All of them love you on the weekend
Who'll be there when fevers end?
I'll pretend I'm your best friend
(And you've been wishing you were someone else)

"Watch how I dance"
You said "watch how they glance"
Felt a rush and called it love
A digital romance
I'm playing the victim
So when you let me down
I'll say “he took me with him
But I was never found”

Rusted throats and cherry noses, try and catch our high
Your half-shut eyes tell more than you know
I whispered to the moon so I won't wake her sister
She said she forgives you, but I don't agree with her

By the way, baby
I've seen you on the internet
But in the flesh
I feel like we've never met

When you dance, don't do it for me
When we kiss, do it as you please
In the night, don't do it for the screen
(And you've been wishing you were someone else)
All of them love you on the weekend
Who'll be there when fevers end?
I'll pretend I'm your best friend
(And you've been wishing you were someone else)

Remember when it's over
We felt it before the rush
It's not secondhand love, I know you
Smoke cause you like the burn in your throat
Not your head in the clouds for the teeth of a crowd

And I wish I was someone else
