A Song About Summer

He's falling off the highest cliff he's ever climbed
Sill trying to get his broken wings to fly
He’s lost out past the edge of what he knows
Heading towards the far edge of the world
His time was lost in the orange glow
Reliving every moment that has swirled
He knows that he never had it Perfect
but he misses every instant,
when everything made sense
He's holding onto the life that he lost
holding on whatever the cost
Holding onto the words they said
when his whole world came crashing to a head
Waiting it out was never enough
but starting over is always tough
Holding onto the things they meant
when that summertime finally came to a end
Behind the veil, behind the laws
Lost warm and waiting
Life was simple, had no flaws
Simple little sailings
Knocking over yesterday
We’ll Forget it soon enough
Ready, Steady, Come what may
Living by a calling bluff
Out for kicks, out for ourselves
And they loved every minute
As if the dream could see itself
he put his all into it
He's holding onto the life that he lost
holding on whatever the cost
Holding onto the words they said
when his whole world came crashing to a head
Waiting it out was never enough
but starting over is always tough
Holding onto the things they meant
when that summertime came finally to a end
Burning bridges he never meant
while the life he wanted fell out beneath him
find a way to maybe see things clearly
And if He could find a better way
To find himself and seize that day
He’d do it in a second
it’s nowhere near like he expected
Suddenly it’s all ok
we just went our separate ways
Yet Inside he is dying
He knows that their lying
Finish what they started
so very long ago
Finally they’d take it slow
They’d all sing the song that goes
He's holding onto the life that he lost
holding on whatever the cost
Holding onto the words they said
when his whole world came crashing to a head
Waiting it out was never enough
but starting over is always tough
Holding onto the things they meant
when that summertime finally came to a end
They grew older, Life grew colder,
They all watched the dream fade away
lost out past the edge of what he know
Waiting for that dream that he let go
There they go
There they go
