lyrics

The Long Summer

You've dug this trench
You deal with the consequence
A no man’s land between pride and envy
A fate bestowed on an alliance that's broken
Your biased opinion only proves your ignorance
When these memories turn into regrets
You are creating these tragedies
Trying to take back what was said
And time will only let you pass
If you are willing to move on
If you try to change the past
Soon everything will be gone
How could we let it come to this
Now everything seems so wrong
Ask yourself, “was it worth it?”
When the Earth and the Sun have reached aphelion
Now we can see the edge of this ellipse
The memories once had are now all gone
You're burning these bridges and leaving yourself stranded
I will weave my apology right into your eulogy
I dare you to cast your judgment upon me
You are crossing behind enemy lines
Your fists are clenched and you are leaving
Everything you love behind
Pretentious fraud
You are regretting everything that you do
I will wait until you're in the ground to remember you
