Lyrics:

[Verse]
Stale love? An understatement
Gives in, he stalks defeat‚ no longer
Effervescent‚ steps echo behind
Mellow‚ one can fake it
Renew or cancel love's prescription
'Cause it don't exist

[Pre-Chorus]
Your arms, withdrawn
When our departure's bent
How may I feign dismay?
"I can't, but hope you do"
And I don't wanna hold your hand

[Chorus]
A summer dance‚ a grueling glance
Wishful thinking at its best
The brightest smile, no wonder we met
Maybe your head's not here
Your love for me says many things
The burning sight of roses, too

[Verse 2]
Stale love‚ a stranger
Palms are ice when held for fun
And the gloves don't fit
You misread
Wholehearted intent
To miscommunicate
I live for when her

[Pre-Chorus]
Arms, withdraw when our war
(Arms, withdraw when our departure's)
Injects disdain in our veins
(Bent, how may I feign dismay?)
"I can't, but hope you do"
And I don't wanna hold your hand

[Chorus]
A summer dance, a grueling glance
Wishful thinking at its best
Your love for me says many things
The burning sight of roses, too
