Lyrics

SUMMER HOUSE

Today
We're sitting in the summer house
It's like there's flames ripping through
The leafy ceiling above
Because you
You've revealed your future
And it's like a rebuff
I don't want to go through

There's a fire in the summer house
Dirt floor's getting churned
You're the girl who is running out
I'm the one who's going to burn

Then it's I
Giving out veiled signals
Under my skin there's a flush
But you don't seem to notice at all
That's because you
My long-time neighbor
You got your ticket out of here
You're living for what's in store

Chorus


So I let it all come out
That I've been harboring this love for you
But you say you've had no idea
And you're embarrassed to have to say
You've never felt the same way

So I
Reeling in rejection
I'm punch drunk staggering
Beside your near perfection
With my cigarette lighter
I make it flame
I set the summer house alight
And I watch as you run away

Chorus
