lyrics

Cigarettes last longer in the summertime
and neighborhoods are smaller than in your mind
but nobody tells you that you find it out
nobody tells you but you find it out

Your lips shined brighter in the autumn sun
never want the street lights to come back on
only ever wanted to see you smile
I only ever wanted to see you smile

You used to tell me that we could leave
if we wanted to we'd leave this town right now
it's all a bluff that we kept on telling ourselves

It's an empty threat
it's what you said
I put to you
in my old bed
an empty threat

Winter skin cracks and then falls right off
Spring comes in like a rush of blood
your color is fading and it won't grow back
your color is fading and it won't grow back

Sarah, this pain that you are feeling now
passes with time believe me child
I only ever wanted to see you smile
only ever wanted to see you smile

You used to tell me that we could leave
if we really wanted to we'd leave right now
it's all a bluff that we kept on telling ourselves

It's an empty threat
it's what you said
I put to you
in my old bed
an empty threat
an empty threat
it's what you said
I put to you
in my old bed
an empty threat
