Change your clothes in the shadows
Let nothing pass through lonely doorways
Your sand castle crumbles, but you've never been better
Is it real if we don't swim in the shame?

Like a swing set in the sea
We are anything but ordinary

You'll be dead in December

You're always on guard in a beach house of cards
Keep watch through fragments of glass
I know about your secrets in the ceiling
While you're screaming every night
About the shape of your hands

Like a swing set in the sea
We are anything but ordinary

You'll be dead in December
There can't be two of us forever
Embrace the endless changes
Flames to corners of our pages
There can't be two of us forever

A slow weave through abandoned streets
Technicolor tapestry, as half of me is dying
The only difference between a garden
And a graveyard is what you bury in it
You're not who you think you are
So let go of old ghosts, let your hair grow

You'll be dead in December
There can't be two of us forever
Embrace the endless changes
Flames to corners of our pages
There can't be two of us forever
Dead in December
There can't be two of us forever
Forever

Like a swing set in the sea
We are everything but ordinary
