August Stars

I saw the august stars
go swimming in the park
and children give the dark
the time to be a part
forgot to be aware
to forget what keeps me there
as lovers come to share
I lost the need to care
I don’t know
why summer goes
silent though
you don’t know
the water ever waits
the water’s never late
I hear the water say
don’t be afraid
it doesn’t matter how long the road
it doesn’t matter how far you go
at the end it’s still you, you know
it is still you, you know
the past possesses everything I know
the past confesses everything I don’t
undresses everything
nostalgia becomes a drug
when you feel like getting out of luck
ran over by a truck
treated like a little fuck
