I'm tangled in ropes
Pulled into the shore
You wash up all heavy
Tired and bored
Had a laugh made of wax
In a house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
When the tide rolled out
And all was exposed
You found yourself drowning
The currents, untold
Here's a sand dollar too
Hard thoughts taking hold
Though the 100 degree heat he felt took hold
And mixing your drinks with holy water
Won't cover up sins that are bound to follow
And a laugh made of wax, house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
Well the winter came early, and the ocean froze over
You threw your belongings, onto the shoulder
Stole a pair of boots, that could handle the cold
And walked out into the frozen unknown
And mixing your drinks with holy water
Won't cover up sins that are bound to follow
And a laugh made of wax, house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
Now I'm tangled in ropes
Pulled into the shore
You washed up all heavy
Tired and bored
Had a laugh made of wax
In a house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
When the tide rolled out
And all was exposed
You found yourself drowning
The currents, untold
Here's a sand dollar too
Hard thoughts taking hold
Though the 100 degree heat he felt took hold
Now mixing your drinks with holy water
Won't cover up sins that are bound to follow
And a laugh made of wax, house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
And then winter came early
And the ocean froze over
You threw your belongings, onto the shoulder
Stole a pair of boots, that could handle the cold
And walked out into the frozen unknown
Now mixing your drinks with holy water
Won't cover up sins that are bound to follow
And a laugh made of wax, house made of butter
How they melted that summer
How they melted that summer
Now I'm tangled in ropes
Pulled into the shore
You washed up all heavy
Tired and bored
