Summer's End

Ashes You Leave

Is this human nature

Are we designed this way

To be unhappy, so uncertain

To live in fear every day

Yet in the affairs of the heart we dwell naïve

So childishly gullible and willing to forgive

And when we're left with nothing but the choking pain

We hope it will be washed away by the autumn rain

If I could only

Find a reason to carry on

Not to remain lonely

When the burden inside weights a ton

Than I could only

Give this wretched life a try

Deny only

If you think this is a lie

You still linger and brood over your misery

But the only emotion you inspire is sympathy

So play me a mellow tune

Give me a darker rhyme

Let's make this a sad one

This is a lovelorn time

Summers end...

We were nothing but actors

In this nightmare play

The trees are removing their cloaks

The autumn is here to stay

Summers end...
