lyrics

leave me humming
like an engine running
the beat is lulling
soon I'll fall asleep

the days gather dust
a life ahead of us
i'm being so petty
with all my feels

how many days together
till we're all scattered?
it doesn't matter
not to me

ain't it easy
are we not lucky
don't we have reason
to celebrate

ain't it easy
pinch me baby
before it's all just
memory

we met out in the woods
i took the long way home that night
alone on my bike
through the sleeping suburbs
i laid down in the grass
my clothes got wet and cold
so this is how it ends
i wish i could have cried

heat kills in august
the rolling hills in august
get stoned in august
leave home in august

get a job in august
fall in love in august
get stoned in august
leave home in august
