August Love

Beautiful things don't ask for attention
It's words like that you'll never understand
While we lay here
Playing the mixtape of our memories
While we watch the sunset

Let's pretend this isn't how it ends
Walk through the garden of your heart's plans
August love
You won't remember it but I can

'Cause I've been playing chess on a checkerboard
Trying to scrape the pieces back together
Of the shattered glass that made up the light
I saw you in but don't see you in anymore

Let's pretend this isn't how it ends
Walk through the garden of your heart's plans
August love
You won't remember it but I can

Do you remember watching the sunset?
I'll live this miserable life alone in the backyard
I fake a smile everyday
'Cause I know
I'm nothing to no one
I'll never be what you want
Just listen to me when I say
I can't be here anymore
I'm nothing to no one
I'll never be what you want
