Summer Friends

(album: South Loop Summer - 2021)

I guess your summer friends
Are only around for the summer
I guess this means that you and I have never even really
Needed each other
And I know that my life has been
A little tougher lately
Near death experiences had me thinking maybe
That everything I've worked for will have a purpose whether you are here or not
And I will keep on playing shows and writing music
No one knows because it's worth a shot
Cause your summer friends are only around for the summer
Your summer friends are forgetting each other
Your summer friends are moving on to literally anything better
Your summer friends will change with the weather
Change with the weather
Change with the weather
All I needed was a "do you wanna talk about it?"
All I got was nothing at all
And was it my fault this time around?
For being too drunk to say it out loud
And I wish I hadn't said everything yet
Wish I could've gotten any rest
And after everything you put me through
Why the hell would I ever still wanna stand by you?
And I can't get you off, you're stuck on these clothes
I can't take you off as much as I couldn't say no
I'm buried in a hospital bag
Far from what feels like home
This hospital bracelet's the only thing making me feel like maybe I'm not so alone
I said no
I said no
I said no
I said no
And your summer friends are only around for the summer
Your summer friends are forgetting each other
Your summer friends are moving on to literally anything better
Your summer friends will change with the weather
Change with the weather
Change with the weather
