Month of Juliet and you are gorgeous, the dust you ingest you die

Broke my link my ideal now their eyes

Like their lies move on quick like a suicide

Summer prays that she could be rain
Desire for transformation, with summer wishing to become rain.
As the car crash left you for the blame

And nightfall brought your daemons and evil arkaide
Nightfall bringing personal demons and negative influences.
She is the famine, I'm California

The sunset was the devil's warning

His siren was louder than love and it sounds so pretty relieved that you fell

Something born in my brain bleeding silver and rain lives a will that can't ever change

And nightfall was a shock so you closed your eyes, a fever breaks out through the line

And I'm gone 'cause I felt the curse of the sun

You left your sweetheart in California...

Sounds like sugar into your ear and his spiderweb caught your tear

I noticed he's writing his name in your hand
