summer has never felt this sad.
feeling empty, feeling numb-
ah, just thinking about everything makes me feel dumb!
so maybe i'll just go talk to dad.

talking to no one when you're down
because no one's there to make you happy when you frown.
so i'll just lay in my bed
as if i'm dead.

summer has never felt this empty
because you are no one's priority.
summer has never made me feel this mad-
mad for myself for making things go bad.

feel like wanting to cry.
oh, but i don't want to die-
but i'm already dead on the inside.
don't really know if i can survive.

the time when everyone feels so fake
and you've got no friends to take.
so you'll instead go on your own
with nothing else but your phone.
