We think lukewarm water will boil underground
The dark dirt's so hot, why would it not?
I can feel it in my spine, hour to hour
Sun glowing on its way down
I remember running hours thinking I wanna grow up
Now I deflect when they say I'm mature for my age
Now I reflect on the days I was okay
I remember driving home and crying in the backseat
I remember years later, it all connecting
In the backyard playing hide and seek
Lock her up and throw away the key
Now I deflect when they say I'm mature for my age
Now I reflect on the days I was okay
We'd run home and make a pact, give it fifteen or twenty
Swear to our moms we would full and run back to see
All of our spells tipped and spilled in the dirt
Betrayal always hurts, but unexpected's the worst
Oh, time, time, time is a curse
