Something must've gone wrong in my brain

Got your chemicals all in my veins

Feeling all the highs, feel all the pain

Let go of the wheel, it's the borderline

Now I’m seeing red, not thinking straight

Blurring all the lines, you intoxicate me

It was July, and the sun 
toasted the emerald grass
until it smelled of warmth 
and green and life. 
 
It was July, and my heart
soaked up the air warmth 
until it sang of joy
and love and life.

  And did a fun dance
