lyrics

Thinking of tomorrow
Looking at the weather
And laugh
It's overcast and raining
No use complaining

Oh. Far as anyone knows
It just flows

Should I reserve a space on your palm?

Burn after reading
And bury my name
It bears no repeating
I'm not the same
And you're to blame
I'm not the same. I'm not the same.

It's summertime
It's bad to be in bed
What's in your head?

Oh. Dreaming of snow, it's so...

Should I dissolve on the tip of your tongue

Burn after reading
And bury my name
It bears no repeating
I'm not the same
And you're to blame
I'm not the same. I'm not the same

At least play the game
