Paroles de Dried Up

hang dog you sitting and counting nameless stars and when you look down you're beginning to fall away you dried up like an august creekbed i mounted in an album with some photos of your summer friends i can't tell what the note on the back said you're moving like a poem and it hurts to see you going i recall the smell of summer on your skin we were seventeen and everything was pounding and it wouldn't stop it's hard to put to words what i was thinking then i don't know, we were alive or something browned off sitting amidst the endless cars and when you stall out they're beginning to pull away you dried up like an august creekbed i mounted in an album with some photos of your summer friends i can't tell what the note on the back said you're moving like a poem and it hurts to see you going i remember licking ice cream off your chin we were seventeen and everything was pounding and it wouldn't stop it's hard to put to words what i was thinking then i don't know, we were in love or something i recall the smell of summer on your skin we were seventeen and everything was pounding and it wouldn't stop it's hard to put to words what i was thinking then i don't know, we were alive or something
