I'm not one to hate the summer
Catastrophic lay in my bed lover
I've got 27 records in the corner
Wear a smile that i bought for a quarter
There's a poster on my wall and it's in pieces
I fix it but it falls on me when i'm sleeping
I guess what i'm sayin is i'm broken
"I'm doing fine"
Is my new slogan
And i hope that one day i can forget
All the feelings i hurt
All the actions i regret
Cause i finally feel like i'm back to being myself
But in the back of my mind
It comes out from time to time
When august came around
There was this darkness that i found
And i was ready to hang it up
But if you looked at me now
You'd be so damn proud
You won't believe me when i say
I was on my way out
Therapist told me i was crazy
Both parents told me i was lazy
I wasn't gonna make it any longer
Out in public
Winning an oscar
And i hope that one day i can forget
All the feelings i hurt
All the actions i regret
Cause i finally feel like i'm back to being myself
But in the back of my mind
It comes out from time to time
When august came around
There was this darkness that i found
And i was ready to hang it up
But if you looked at me now
You'd be so damn proud
You won't believe me when i say
I was on my way out
I don't feel like i'm whole anymore
Sit in silence
With the clothes on the floor
A few months go by
There's nothing i can do
To change the past
But i'm home at last
Home at last
When
August comes around
I'm reminded of this town
And lately my guitar ain't enough
But take a look at me now
And i'll say it clear and loud
I've got love
I've got love
I've got love
