LYRIC FOR SALE

By Kristin Parker

Warm summer breeze
Tryna wipe away my tears
First leaves half colored already
I wriggle my toes in the slippers
One last time

Tomorrow it will hit
The whirlwind of every day life
Another year has passed
And I couldn’t protect us from that
Tear falling off my chin

It’s the last day
Last day of summer
And I’m shivering already
The terror of what’s ahead
Drives me slightly mad

It was a lovely summer
The days felt long
We expanded what was possible for us
I fill the balcony pool
With shaking hands

It’s the last day
Last day of summer
And I’m shivering already
The terror of what’s ahead
Drives me slightly mad

I see the terror in your eyes
Couldn’t protect you from what scares you
Once again, have to push through
Should be happy I’ll have some time alone
But I’ll just be missing you

It’s the last day
Last day of summer
And I’m shivering already
I can see what’s ahead
And it drives me mad

Drives me mad
