Summer

So this is the world that we're living in
I just googled the news, feels like I can't win
Everybody's offended, nobody knows why
Well, we all look happy on our Snapchat
But we all know filters can lie
How can we see tomorrow, if we're scared to walk outside?

It's a cold cold world that we're living in
Everybody's on the dance floor waiting for the encore
It's a cold cold world that we're living in
Somebody tell me why

I'm bloody, broken, and bruised on the inside
I feel like running, but there's nowhere to hide
Was it always this way? Or is this the new norm?
My mama always says "hey son, just weather the storm
Cause you know the day will be brighter when this darkness is done."
I still believe in a better day, and I still believe in love
We need consequences for our actions. We need the strength to rise above
But hey, this is the world that we're living in
Sometimes it's hard just to be alive
How can we see tomorrow if we're scared to walk outside?

It's a cold cold world that we're living in
Everybody's on the dance floor waiting for the encore
It's a cold cold world that we're living in
Can somebody tell me why?

Why can't it be summer?
Summertime, all the time?
I miss the warmth and the freedom that
I used to feel in the summer
The summertime

So why can't it be?

Why can't it be summer?
