Ice Cream and Sunscreen Lyrics by Martha

Blisters in the Pit of My Heart

2016

[Verse 1]
The autumn forecast's looking dismal again
This year, I'll spend November in the house
August sort of stifled your potential, didn't it?
It's coyness, boy, that caught you out
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you wish for fireworks to light your July sky
I was the dampest box of matches you could ever hope to find
[Chorus]
I'm sorry, what?
I hear you, yeah
I was watching the skin peeling off your sunburnt shoulders
I know, I know you only melt in the middle like ice cream and sunscreen
Blisters in the pit of my heart, blisters in the pit of my heart
[Verse 2]
Our birthdays came and went unnoticed, again
You said you knew my star sign from the start
That late September sunshine leaves me pining for June
December boy, you got it wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you wish for fireworks to light your July sky
I was the dampest box of matches you could ever hope to find
[Chorus]
I hear you, yeah
I was watching the skin peeling off your sunburnt shoulders
I know, I know you only melt in the middle like ice cream and sunscreen
Blisters in the pit of my...
I hear you, yeah
I was watching the skin peeling off your sunburnt shoulders
I know, I know you only melt in the middle like ice cream and sunscreen
Blisters in the pit of my heart
My heart, my heart
