lyrics

we spent our afternoons outside
shouting into ice
always one big fight

out of the fevered rush of words
i would call you home
where else would i go

i found you a match for my mind
acid tongue and eyes that burn fire

i think back to then
back when we would spend hours on the couch
and wanting you
whispering in french
like two lovers that knew our time had passed
we held on still

i grew accustomed to your face
just like that old song
you knew all along

i'd act like you twisted my arm
but it was a lie
did you even try

i found you a match for my mind
acid tongue and eyes that burn

i think back to then
back when we should spend hours on the couch
and wanting you
whispering in french
like two lovers that knew our time had passed
we held on still
