August Video (MV)

I just want August to end, bring me September again
Let all the flowers die,
Leave this heavy warmth behind
Turns out
I'm not cut out
For these nights

You're summer, but not the sun, I mean the storms
You love like you're heading into war
I tried taking off your armor,
You
Thought I was changing who you are

How could I hold you?
How could I hold you like this?
How could I hold you?

Oh, the thunder's too loud
I'm making myself sick trynna stick around
I get it now
You've survived by baring your teeth
I was the naive one, asking why you're baring them at me

It's cruel
The way you sometimes see me

You're summer but not the sun, I mean the storms
You love like you're heading into war
I tried taking off your armor
You
Thought I was changing who you are

How could I hold you?
How could I hold you like this?
How could I hold you?

I'm sorry my love,
But August seems to be eating us alive
The only time I talk to God is to beg him to make you alright
(Oh)

I'm changing seasons but I'm looking back
Am I just trynna save what I can?
My fingers burned trynna take off your armor
It's a job made only for your hands
(Oh)
How could I hold you
How could I hold you
How could I hold you like this?

How could I hold you like this?
How could I hold you like this?
