faded streamers still hang
with aged, popped balloons
fresh breeze engulfing them
this is how august ends
my sixth one away
from where my life was given
my second one falling
around you as a ribbon
september makes seven
rotations of heaven
since i began constructing
my own secret planet
river still running through
still sand frames the banks
only thing left around here
getting carried away
my sixth one away
from where my life was given
my second one falling
around you as a ribbon
september makes seven
rotations of heaven
since i began constructing
my own secret planet
fire can't burn blue forever
this is why summer ends
sharks taking back all their playgrounds
this is why summer ends
we could all use a little more purpose
this is why summer ends
earth needing death for revival
this is why summer ends
summer ends
