Lyrics

She said she never lived
The day to days just seemed to string together
They can get out of this small town.
You can't live down the past
When it takes the present tense.

Chorus:
It was a hot Missouri July night
The sweat and the fireflies all night.
The town looked for them
They were nowhere to be found.
And when it rains
You can't tell the difference
When the footprints became the stains
Of a growing resilience.

His daddy said he'd never be more than
He's holding a part
Time's running out get out while you can.
He's already got a hold on you.
He said you'll never be a man.

Chorus

Bridge:
Don't hold me.

Chorus

Chorus

It was a hot Missouri July night
The sweat and the fireflies all night.
The town looked for them
They were nowhere to be found.
