It's newly summer and Tony Bourdain died
I'm laying down in the shower staring up at a broken light
There's something's screaming out from in my vent at night
It's shaking the house, it's trying to get out
It's newly summer and Tony Bourdain died
I'm laying down in the shower staring up at a broken light
There's something's screaming out from in my vent at night
It's shaking the house, it's trying to get out
It wants to tell me another lie
[Verse 2]
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if the magic's gone?
I guess I should be glad that there was any at all
From 50th and Cedar to Richmond off of Front
I guess I should be glad that there was any at all
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And the city coughs me out
Like a splinter in my wrist getting pushed out of my skin
And the city coughs me out
[Chorus]
When I was 17 I wrote a song about how I'm
Drinking kerosene to light a fire in my gut
And I'll be coughing out embers for decades to come
I was 17 with a fire in my gut
I was 17 with a fire in my gut
[Verse]
What if, what if, what if, what if the magic's gone?
I guess I should be glad I was still in the fight
It's right there waiting for me, I've lost it in the lights
I guess I should be glad that I was still in the fight
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And the city coughs me out
Like a splinter in my wrist
[Chorus]
When I was 17 I wrote a song about how I'm
Drinking kerosene to light a fire in my gut
And I'll be coughing out embers for decades to come
I was 17 with a fire in my gut

And the city coughs me out
Like a splinter in my wrist
Getting pushed out of my skin
It's getting forced out of my skin
[Chorus]
When I was 17 I wrote a song about how I'm
Drinking kerosene to light a fire in my gut
And I'll be coughing out embers for decades to come
I was 17 with a fire in my gut
I was 17 with a fire in my gut
