Summer Sucks Lyrics by SHALLOWS

2016

[Verse 1]
It's better to want you than to have you
The fragile things will break if they fall
It's easy to call you when I can't get through
But everything is cool overall
It's better to want you than to have you
Your taste is just too rich for my tongue
You're so easy to get to when I won't let you
See the travesty that we could become

[Pre-Chorus]
What you see with your eyes, it's a lie

[Chorus]
So what if we give up
Selling out for the summer
Fighting the heat and learning to sleep alone
So what if we've got love
We can live without it
Your heart's gonna burn but you'll learn to let it go

[Verse 2]
Your words are golden, but we are corroding
Save it for when we are apart
I can't control it when we're in the moment
But you hold me down with every beat of your heart
We've woven all our patterns and we've savored all we've sewn
But where do we go from knowing every inch of each other?
It's better to want you than to have you
I just keep telling myself over and over

[Pre-Chorus]
What you see with your eyes, it's a lie

[Chorus]
So what if we give up
Selling out for the summer
Fighting the heat and learning to sleep alone
So what if we've got love
We can live without it
Your heart's gonna burn but you'll learn to let it go
You gotta learn to let it go
