[Verse 1]
We were killing time behind the mall
Parking lot throne
Cracked asphalt
You lit a flame with shaking hands
Said
"Nothing real goes as planned"
[Chorus]
You were my last cigarette in July
Burned too fast
Left smoke in my eyes
I swear I taste you every time I breathe in
Yeah
You were gone
But you still live on my skin
[Verse 2]
Your stickered car
That crooked grin
Screaming along to songs we didn't fit in
You drew a heart on the fogged-up glass
Said
"Promise me this won't pass"
[Chorus]
You were my last cigarette in July
Burned too fast
Left smoke in my eyes
I swear I taste you every time I breathe in
Yeah
You were gone
But you still live on my skin
[Bridge]
Did you get out of this nowhere town? (hey!)
Or are you still burning yourself down?
I quit the pack
I cut the ties
But some nights I still step outside
[Chorus]
You were my last cigarette in July
Burned too fast
Left smoke in my eyes
I swear I taste you every time I breathe in
Yeah
You were gone
But you still live on my skin
We were killing time behind the mall
Parking lot throne
Cracked asphalt
You lit a flame with shaking hands
Said
"Nothing real goes as planned"
[Chorus]
You were my last cigarette in July
Burned too fast
Left smoke in my eyes
I swear I taste you every time I breathe in
Yeah
You were gone
But you still live on my skin
[Verse 2]
Your stickered car
That crooked grin
Screaming along to songs we didn't fit in
You drew a heart on the fogged-up glass
Said
"Promise me this won't pass"
[Chorus]
You were my last cigarette in July
Burned too fast
Left smoke in my eyes
I swear I taste you every time I breathe in
Yeah
You were gone
But you still live on my skin
[Bridge]
Did you get out of this nowhere town? (hey!)
Or are you still burning yourself down?

You were gone
But you still live on my skin
Stijl van muziek
rock, Crunchy modern rock with a tight three-piece band, male vocals pushed forward. Guitars start palm-muted and tense, opening into wide, open chords on the chorus; bass glues the low end with a driving drum groove and crisp hats. First verse sits simmering, chorus explodes with doubled vocals and a soaring harmony on the hook; bridge drops to half-time with a reverb-soaked lead line before a final, shout-along chorus.
