Last Days Of Summer - Silverstein

The bright light beams

From her eyes

Like broken glass.

Or a broken heart,

Who would have guessed?

You’d leave me here.

Beneath my eyes I feel the tears,

I hold back.

I won’t leave, leave this way again.

I won’t leave this way.

As my legs

They start to shake,

I feel nothing.

I wanted you, (I wanted you!)

I needed you,

But you weren’t there for me this time.

(There for me!)

I won’t leave, leave this way again.

I won’t leave this way.

You that I loved!

That I needed!

You weren’t there.

Not this time!

You!

What can I do?!

I was supposed to love you!

What can I say?!

I won’t leave,

What can I do?!

I was supposed to help you!

I cannot feel you!

Last breath I feel!

Warm air intake!

Last summer’s day!

Last one I take!

For you!

I won’t leave!

Leave this way!

I won’t leave

Lost it all!

All for you!

I won’t leave.

When the shadows beam!

Misery remains!

I won’t leave this time.
