Just Want That Cool - Arden Coley
I learned the fence by heart
Lached the gap, the rust
Your name on my wet lips
The moon above the dust
Bare feet on cold concrete
I hold my breath and slide
The water waits in silence
Like it has seen my kind
And I know I shouldn't come
I know I shouldn't stay
But the blue is calling me
Like it knows the way
Sneak me to the pool
Let me float in the blue
Sneak me to the pool
Till the night falls through
Sneak me to the pool
I just want that cool
Just want that cool
The tiles keep their secrets
My shadow by the lane
A stolen little kingdom
Under the broken gate
I hear the guard dog barking
Far past the tennis court
But here the water holds me
Like I was wanted more
And I know I should go home
I know I should be good
But the dark is soft around me
Like it understands my mood
Sneak me to the pool
Let me float in the blue
Sneak me to the pool
Till the night falls through
Sneak me to the pool
I just want that cool
Just want that cool
If you find me gone by morning
Leave my shoes by the fence
I was tired of the daytime
And its hard edges
Let the water keep my secret
Let the ripples fade
I was only borrowing
The peace I couldn't make
Sneak me to the pool
Let me float in the blue
Sneak me to the pool
Till the night falls through
Sneak me to the pool
I just want that cool
Just want that cool
