lyrics

It was springtime
Foggy and flavorful
After it rained
It smelled like lilacs
We spent whole days watching puddles fill up
Dreaming of summer plans
Rollercoasters, popcorn
Scary movies, and beaches of sand

We were care free
Our minds sharp and scheming
We’d neglect the hours that passed
Overstimulation taken gracefully
Our eyes seeing everything
For the first time

Our happiness came and went

It was summer time
Humid and draining
It smelled like tar and chlorine
We spend our lives
avoiding the pot holes, opened up
Being let down again
Empty living rooms
Long lines, and burnt food

Were we care free?
But this must be a distorted memory
One ill never truly see
Just oversaturation sold to our romantic minds
Through eyes that yearn
For authenticity

You’re on my mind
In every memory
Its you I find
How in the world
We grew up so fast
Life came and passed
You’re on my mind

And I thought I did everything right
For just a season everything seemed to fall into place
But looking back with disregard to the expectations
There was never really anything for me to do but wait

Wait for the summer heat to turn
Everything we thought was our concern

Look back at memories; scars we earned
Everything we loved was set to burn

A fever pitch of lights and sound
Then nothing but black
Nothing but black
A fever pitch of lights and sound
We’ll get none of this back
None of this back.
