Summer used to be a carefree free time
Grown hair and growth spurts
Now it’s just a period to be uncomfortable
I sweat through my undershirt
Collecting heat waves as I stare up at the planes
I wish we could go away
And that’s a part of me I guess that hasn’t changed
I’m doing double shifts in May
And summer isn’t quite the same
Summer isn’t quite the same
I’m praying for rain
I’m praying for shade
I’m praying for three months that I won’t remember
I’m praying for the summer to end
Summer used to be a girl I would long for
Now she arrives without embrace
I am counting down the days until autumn
Where she departs without a trace
And summer isn’t quite the same
Summer isn’t quite the same
I’m praying for rain
I’m praying for shade
I’m praying for three months that I won’t remember
I’m praying for the summer to end
I’m praying for rain
I’m praying for shade
