Matt Duke - Opossum

Summer colds
Never really made much sense at all
I was sweating and through mid-July
Ain't no better than the fall
I don't know what the day might bring
At all
Just lock my door up safe
Inside my walls

So come on, wake up
Don't play around
You know what I mean
Get up
We don't have much time
And come on, wake up
Come play dead
I know you're scared
But
We'll be fine
Just you and me


Jaded like
On a roof
All through the rainy days
Brave yourself against the roaring sky
As the city washed away
Washed away
You should lay your fingers on my lips and say
Nooo
You complicate so much
Just let it go

So come on, wake up
Don't play around
You know what I mean
Get up
We don't have much time
And come on, wake up
Come play dead
I know you're scared
But
We'll be fine
Just you and me

So cry at the stone house
Down beneath the waves
Not like tears of mourning
Like tears of pain
