Last days of summer air.
As I’m remembering.
Like it was yesterday
Just a night in ruins.
Where does time disappear?
It’s almost been three years.
If life was like a tape
I’d stop and hit rewind.
How many times did we get so jaded?
When did we ever lose control?
I never thought it would be complicated.
Now, it’s so confusing.
And when I try to erase the feeling,
I realize I can’t let go.
Wish I could have one second in July.
(So I could say goodbye to my friend Tony Sly.)
You shaped the way I think about
the sadness of the world.
and left me with more betterness
In every song I’ve heard.
Reflections in a life sized mirror
Hanging on the wall, slowly fading fast
Is it too late to call?
I thought you were invincible
But then I heard the news.
It’s hard to win the battle
when there’s substance to abuse
Checking for a pulse
when there’s nobody home
I’m gonna self destruct.
and leave it all alone
