29) Pretend

Afterglow for the dayglo summertime, it's gone

Pull back the blue curtains for winter's show,

she draws the blinds on another year past

and begin again. I'm done with all the navel gazers

but I forget: I'm one of them. Let's wait 'till next summer

where the end of next year is in sight. And you can say again

Well whatever, it only bothers you if you can see it,

and if you can't see it, it's not there, right? Let's go back

to next summer and the summer after that,

let's all pretend it never ends and let's all pretend we're not wasting our time.
