Sunburn Fades Songtext
von Briston Maroney

Did you pass out that night
When the band drove you home?
Heard I missed the stage dive
I was crying alone

And I thought I′d lose it
When you all hit Broadway
Even good friends fuck up
Sometimes, you learn the hard way

Discoveries of these twenty-somethings
There ain't been nothin′ ain't been said before
There is that voice in the back of my head
Saying, "If you don't like it, there′s the door"
I can′t take it anymore

If I go, would I be
Someone's anything?
Somehow everything?
Could I settle for less?


I feel blessed, I feel cursed
That everything hurts
But at least I′m free
To get it off of my chest

Remember that drive
When the AC went out?
Couldn't hear the music
Screaming and sweating it out

And summer won′t end
If we don't let it
But I need you here to kill this fear
That when the sunburn fades, we′ll all forget this

Discoveries of these twenty-somethings
You never quite forget the first letdown
There is that voice in the back of my head
Saying, "Hold on to those who stick around
And you'll make it out"

If I go, would I be
Someone's anything?
Somehow everything?
Could I settle for less?


I feel blessed, I feel cursed
That everything hurts
But at least I′m free
To get it off of my chest

Does it get better than this?
It will or it won′t and we'll just get used to it
Does it get better than this?
It will or it won′t and we'll just get used to it
Does it get better than this?
It will or it won′t and we'll just get used to it
