Summer Song

Time flies with a blink of an eye
And a whisper that reminds you it's cold outside
Again, not again
I'm so sick of this insanity
And afraid of my hypocrisy
Why is this my reality?
Please take me back
I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna grow old
All I want
Is to be alone
I'll wait til summer comes, and I'll be fine
All I need
I'm begging you please
For just one reason to thank you, to smile
So please don't forget me
Here's to scraping your elbows and to falling on your face
but the harder you laugh the less you feel the pain
Here's to not wishing you were dead and to shaving both your legs
for the first time, because one stupid girl made you feel self conscious at summer camp
All I want
Is to be alone
I'll wait til summer comes, if I have to
All I need
I'm begging you please
For just one reason to thank you, to smile
So please don't forget me
I spend so much of my time scraping gum off the sole of my shoes,
When I know I should just keep walking so I won't be left behind
Pretty violets and oranges
I'll peel the skin off if I have to
Pretty violets and oranges
Please, please, please don't forget me
Is the changing of the seasons a real cure for my depression
Or is it just a band aid for my internal demons?
I don't know
A kaleidoscope of colors in the sky
Distorting all the memories, sewn carelessly
Through my mind

Hum (Tigers Jaw)

From the basement where we first talked,
to the ride home
with the kids we barely knew,
you left a permanent scar.
Memories are taped on our walls,
hung as a reminder.
How easy it could be,
when we weren’t growing apart.
I’m always talking in circles,
I always think until I can’t sleep.
We always want what is kept from us.
Well maybe I am the liar,
and there is nothing that is left for us.
You are a permanent scar.
I'm always talking in circles,
I always think until I can't sleep.
You are the leaves at my feet.
You are the hum of electric heat.
I kept myself away,
but I’m starting to like the pain.

Wallflower (Acoustic)

My friend invited me to a party
My friend invited me to a party
Do you want to come?
I'd rather sit at home and cry
I'd rather be a fly on the wall
You can ignore me if you want to, like them
Oh lovely wallflower, you're so beautiful
Just sitting there wasting space and time
Antisocial is a word that describes you perfectly
If you want a friend, you know you can be mine
Now I'm sitting here at the party
And I want to go home
Oh lovely wallflower, you're so beautiful
Just sitting there wasting space and time
Antisocial is a word that describes you perfectly
If you want a friend, you know you can be mine
Oh lovely wallflower, I think you're so beautiful
Look at you just sitting there, wasting my time
Can I be antisocial with you?
Do you want a friend?
Will you be mine?
