he gave me my name in a heat wave
fan circled low above our heads
his hand traced the outline of my cheekbone while we
filled the space of my twin bed
I'd had this conversation
a thousand times in my head
but I still couldn't quite find the words to tell him
all the different people that I've been
like that summer I felt knew
walked the streets in my red shoes
til the flames lit up my eyes
and the demons filled my mind
yeah the demons filled my
he held my body close
called me an angel
never let me go
but I left for the summertime
and that's on me
yeah that's on me
a few months on and I hear his words again
they remind of the way he traded in
his angel for a ghost of his
past life, long ago
well the fall from heaven's long
and I don't think that I can be strong
so I'll hide myself behind a satin sheet
cuz he can't reject what he can't see
no he can't reject what he can't
he held my body close
called me an angel
never let me go
but I left for the summertime
and that's on me
yeah that's on me
he held my body close
called me an angel
never let me go
but I left for the summertime
and that's on me
yeah that's on me
