lyrics

Black & Blue
written by Chris Garneau

Air conditioning is cold
Summer’s hot and love is old
I wish I was smaller
A little creepy crawler

There’s lovers’ sin in this town
Lovers cannot lay down
The summer’s hot as hell here you know
If we think we can drink now
We won’t stop cuz we don’t know how
It’s cold, but we love how it feels so right

I’ll sweat it all out, you sweat a lot too
We hurt the same
The same black and blue

Oh, I wanna catch my death of cold
Oh cuz I’m scared of growing old
Oh don’t return the love I gave
Oh you’re still my favorite

Troubles win in this town
Troubles don’t turn upside down
They shit on the last bit of fun
There’s sin all around
Lovers cannot lay down
And the winter wears and tears our bones

There’s a man in this town
He’s shooting us down
He thinks he’s a big man
but he doesn’t know anything about us
or anything at all
At night he lies awake
and his heart aches
Cuz it’s cold

He sweats it out all the night through
Then he throws up all over me and you

Oh, I wanna catch my death of cold
Oh cuz I’m scared I’m growing old
Oh don’t return the love I gave you
Oh you’re still my favorite
