Opossum by Matt Duke Lyrics

Summer colds never really made much sense at all
I was sweating until mid-July
Ain't no better than the fall
I don't know what the day might bring at all
Just lock my door I'm safe inside my walls

So come on, wake up
Don't play around
You know what I mean
Get up
We don't have much time
And come on, wake up
Quit playin' dead
I know you're scared
But
We'll be fine
Just you and me

Jaded, lay
On a roof
All through the rainy days
Brave yourself against the roaring sky
As the city washed away
Washed away
She laid a finger on my lips and says
Nooo
You complicate so much
Just let it go
So come on, wake up
Don't play around
You know what I mean
Get up
We don't have much time
And come on, wake up
Quit playin' dead
I know you're scared
But
We'll be fine
Just you and me

So I cried as the stone house
Drowned beneath the waves
Not like tears of mourning
Like tears of pain
Think of all that must come now

Plus I'll still have you
So hold me close
While we're waiting for the rescue boat
Darling, take my tissue and blow your nose
Dear

So come on, wake up
Don't play around
You know what I mean
Get up
We don't have much time
And come on, wake up
I know you're scared
But
We'll be fine
Just you and me
You and me
