By July
You came around
Holding the sun
Pouring it out
So I could almost feel it
You piled up the days
To give me some time
And built me a throne
Where I could be your queen
My gravity is
Starting to show
So don't hold me high
I'll only let you down
Still you refuse to give up on me at all
My mouth is wet
With wanting
The words to leave my tongue
But my scars will keep for summers
So baby you should run
By July you wear me down
By July you wear me out
I am the one
Holding the clouds
Drinking the rain
Until I drown me out
I'm Digging me up
I'm Cutting me down
Why do you want yourself
A messed up queen?
But there you wait
Counting the days
Catching me up
So that I'll love me too
Still you refuse to give up on me at all
You tie me up
In knots
And complicate my plan
I used to get off easy
Without showing my hand
By July you wear me down
By July you wear me out
And you wear me like a crown
But I wear Ruby like a frown
Rain, Rain
Go Away
Please come back some other day
Oh that sunshine
Could be mine
If I'd just let it in
How do you keep
Holding the sun
Pouring it out
When everything is raining
How do I stop
Throwing me up
Throwing me out
So I can be your queen
Why do you wait
Saving the days
Hoping that time
Will let me love me too
Still you refuse to give up on me at all
By July you wear me down
By July you wear me out
July wears me like a crown
But I wear Ruby like a frown
Holding the sun
Pouring it out
So I could almost feel it
You piled up the days
To give me some time
And built me a throne
Where I could be your queen
My gravity is
Starting to show
So don't hold me high
I'll only let you down
Still you refuse to give up on me at all
My mouth is wet
With wanting
The words to leave my tongue
But my scars will keep for summers
So baby you should run
By July you wear me down
By July you wear me out
I am the one
Holding the clouds

Until I drown me out
