Lauren Cimorelli - Atom Bomb

8 days, 8 nights
Spent trying to sort through the aftermath
It’s quiet, too quiet
This silence sounds like a thunderclap
All I wanted was somebody to trust
But all you wanted was somebody to want you
In this toxic love we’re chemicals waiting to react

And then I went and set you off with goodbye
And now we’re just a mushroom cloud in the sky
And there’s no silver lining, only just surviving
And through the smoke all I could see were your eyes
And boy I’ve never burned so bad from the fire
And they could see the ashes falling for miles
And now there’s just no ending, only all this wreckage
We weren’t just wrong
We were an atom bomb

What’s yours what’s mine
Keep trying to pick up what’s left of me
Breathe slow
Let go
But the smoke just keeps suffocating me

Maybe you were already on fire
Maybe when you touched me so was I
I should’ve known we would explode cause I saw the signs

And then I went and set you off with goodbye
And now we’re just a mushroom cloud in the sky
And there’s no silver lining, only just surviving
And through the smoke all I could see were your eyes
And boy I’ve never burned so bad from the fire
And they could see the ashes falling for miles
And now there’s just no ending, only all this wreckage
We weren’t just wrong
We were an atom bomb


Just watching all
these embers fall
Like rain coming down
Strange not to talk
Not write
Not call you when you’re not around
Your love so dangerous
Your touch like a spark on my gasoline heart

And then I went and set you off with goodbye
And now we’re just a mushroom cloud in the sky
And there’s no silver lining, only just surviving
And through the smoke all I could see were your eyes
And boy I’ve never burned so bad from the fire
And they could see the ashes falling for miles
And now there’s just no ending, only all this wreckage
We weren’t just wrong
We were an atom bomb
