Summer

Borrowed
I think this year has left me borrowed
Tomorrow I’m waking up the sun
I’m dragging the lake slow
Follow this life line of memories
Tangled by the water side
That’s where my youth drowned
It fell by the wayside
I’m not counting the greys on my head
I’m calling them silver linings instead
It doesn’t matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
You will always be the leaf to my tree
But this year fall came
And I never saw spring
It fell by the wayside
I’ll keep my wisdom like a tooth
I’m spinning in the black hole of youth
It doesn’t matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
My mind is trained to
I want to find dead bodies with my closest friends
And to long for DC at two AM under Lincoln
Let’s stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
Let’s stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
It doesn’t matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
My mind is trained to
I want to find dead bodies with my closest friends
And to long for DC at two AM under Lincoln
So let’s stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
Let’s stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
