Lovejoy Alphabet (Wasted Summer) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thank the Lord
I find my peace in sucking exhaust
Forget the Gods, I am praying to her
Yes, if she's the one to take me
I won't be opposed, but I thought for sure
That I could endure
But then I woke up, so I exchanged the locks
Tried to lose you in limbo, but here you are
Wanna be my cellmate?

[Verse 2]
Wasting away
Your outlook's an excuse to decay
It's wrong if I stay, even worse if I go
I got tendons made of paper, the wording gets confusing
But I could be wrong, you're already gone
Finding you drunk, nasal deep in the bathtub
You slip into a coma, drip down the foundations

[Chorus]
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer

[Verse 3]
I'm gauging your interests
And I'll smile politely
Did I f*ck up? Think I f*cked with your head?
Or else did you get caught on what someone else said? Did I fallow the fields that I should've left dead?
Always dressing my wounds right before watershed
Now we're wasting away
I'm permanently wasting away
My arched back a steeple, my blood is purée
I'm a stain on my gene pool, I like it that way

[Pre-Chorus]
Wanna be my cellmate?
I promise I can whittle soap
I'll make us matching bracelets
Right before I make the key mold

[Chorus]
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer
You're only what your money pays for
I'll be whatever keeps me sane, oh
Just another flame to smother
Just another wasted summer

[Outro]
Oh, you know what's funny?
