Summer is gone, I’m afraid.
And so are the remnants of you.
That part isn’t such a loss though,
because you broke my heart in two.
How I long for the days of normalcy..
And just maybe I can get back to that
Now that I don’t have to give
because I’ve got nothing left to give
You took and took and took
And now for me, I must live.
Last summer, you made promises
that you didn’t keep
And not once did I complain,
Not even a peep…
I took your words for what they were,
just words, because behind them was no action.
I waited for your wheels to start turning, and as always,
No traction.
Nope, just retraction
you said shit that you didn’t mean..
And I was none the wiser
I just wanted to believe..
And I can’t put all of the blame on you,
I’m to blame too..
But had I known then what I know now…
We would have been through.
Last summer, you sold me on lies.
And this summer, I’m breaking ties..
Last summer, I was a different girl.
Naïve and green
she’s long gone now.
This summer, I’m choosing me.
And that is my vow…
