Azul Lyrics

Borderlands are so polite

With big wet eyes and blonde highlights

Wisconsin gave me mouth to mouth

Coughed up my pride and spit it out

Azul's the type of girl in films

With Cali teeth and skin like silk

Kissed my cheek and squeezed my ribs

And pushed the sighs out into shouts

I still wonder to this day if

Cameras in the east hallway

Saw us talking mouth to mouth

I went up north when things went south

Backs against the stucco wall

I promised her that I would try

I wouldn't say she made me fall

Gave me a reason to survive

I read the books and do the time

Talking in looks walking in lines

The suck spit on linoleum

Like little rubber sea urchins

Kept thinking how it'd feel to drop

From isolation two floors up

To slam through glass and shred my skin

To die like a real person

But that was last year's childish wish

I made Azul just one promise

The crowds will finally start to thin

We'll be okay, we'll start again

I keep thinking I might call

And tell her I'm not feeling right

I make believe she'd leave it all

Give me a reason to survive

Azul was caught up in the pain

The toss and turn of urgent tides

I told her it'd be a shame

To kill someone that's so alive

I'd marry her on google meet

We'd up at the park on elm

And talk about the things she's seen

While I was working on myself

I'm not a kid like I was then

I know what the fuck I'm about

But sometimes I still play pretend

I miss the North when I am south

I miss the North when I am south
