When the morning came we
Were cleaning incense off your
Vinyl shelf cause we lost track of time again
Laughing with my feet in your lap
Like you were my closest friend

How d we end up on the floor anyway
You say
Your roommate s cheap-ass screw top rose
Thats how
I see you every day now

And I chose you
The one I was dancing with in New York
No shoes
Looked up at the sky and it was

The burgundy on my t-shirt
When you splashed your wine into me
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
So scarlet it was

The mark they saw on my collarbone
The rust that grew between telephones
The lips I used to call home
So scarlet, it was maroon

When the silence came we
Were shaking blind and hazy
How the hell did we lose sight of us again
Sobbing with your head in your hands
Aint that the way shit always ends

You were standing hollow-eyed in the hallway
Carnations you had thought were roses
Thats us
I feel you no matter what
The rubies that I gave up

And I lost you
The one I was dancing with in New York
No shoes
Looked up at the sky and it was
Maroon

The burgundy on my t-shirt
When you splashed your wine into me
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
So scarlet, it was (maroon)

The mark they saw on my collarbone
The rust that grew between telephones
The lips I used to call home
So scarlet, it was maroon

And I wake with your memory over me
Thats a real fuckin legacy, legacy
And I wake with your memory over me
Thats a real fuckin legacy... to leave

The burgundy on my t-shirt
When you splashed your wine into me
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
So scarlet, it was maroon

The mark they saw on my collarbone
The rust that grew
between telephones the lips I used to call home
So scarlet it was maroon

It was maroon
