July - Halcyon Days

Sit back and relax, take your time

We’re not even in July

But summers gone

I mean the weather is nice

I’m just stuck in days that passed by

So, let me take a hit

I’ll cut the story short

And tell a lie for the sake of it

Wrong way on a one-way road

No time to turn back

We’re all ghosts and were on our own

Lost in these streets

The whole world is in reach

We all have our city dreams

Just remember that small towns

And hometowns play for keeps

Our trips down memory lane

That end in disaster

And the ambulance is late at the scene

Just let me take one breath

I’ll let the punches roll

Just to take a hit

Sit back, relax, take your time

We didn’t even get to say goodbye

Now summers gone

And I’m stuck in my mind

In the last days of July

So, let me take a hit

It’s how the story goes

Keep telling lies to make sense of it

Two wrongs don’t make it right

No time to turn back

We’re all ghosts and were on our own

(We're all ghosts and were on our own)

So, let me take a hit

I’ll cut the story short

And tell a lie for the sake of it

Wrong way on a one-way road

No time to turn back

We’re all ghosts and were on our own

Sway back and feign death

It’s only way to escape this

Maybe it’s time to turn back

But remember that small towns

And hometowns play for keeps

Sit back, relax, take your time

Who the hell cares about July?

And our summer song

That was stuck on my mind

For the best part of the fall

So, let me take a hit

I’ll cut the story short

Not telling lies, I’m done, I quit

Third time and I made it right

No need to turn back

We’re all ghosts and were on our own

We’re all ghosts and were on our own

Who the hell cares about July?
