fairy lights - the small calamities lyrics

[verse 1]
the fog rolls in and sucks this city dry
outside of your apartment on a frozen summer night
entry codes still branded in my brain
waiting on the landing for last autumn to begin again

[verse 2]
at least the warfare’s still symmetrical
through desert dust and ketamine, your ashes on my grave
i lie awake on hotel drapery
as empty sp*ce and memories keep me permanently on the edge

[prechorus 1]
i would stop writing sad songs if i knew how

[chorus]
with fairy lights across your ocean haze
it’s less goodbye and it’s more get the f*ck away
forget your dreams and write down the things you’d never say
we fell so easy but i will fight another day

[verse 3]
that sofa bed was couched in little lies
we talk about the future like we’ll make it there alive
still finding traces of your cats on all my jackets
i would set myself on fire if i’d rise as someone new
[verse 4]
the biggest lies i let myself believe
that closure would come easily and anything is free
“closure” feels like opening a wound
you never quite recover, you just pray the worst of it will pass on soon

[prechorus 2]
i would stop writing you songs if i knew how

[bridge]
if i could go back to where the holidays began
through pine and menthol and take my world out of your hands
if i could go back and rearrange the fallen sand
i guess i’d leave it, and be right here where i am

[coda]
with fairy lights across your ocean haze
it’s just “goodbye” is so hard for me to say
