Some Summers Just Pretend, Only Warm The Air

You left some hope instilled in me
That I never should give up on anything
I know this made you proud of me
So this song remains for those who hurt like me

The man in black. He rides alone to a final destination unknown.
The man in black. He rides alone: he’s moving on.
Not coming home.

I used to be the fearless one.
Living each day like death would never come
Now I feel his cold breath on my neck
He’s watching my steps and telling me that I could be next.

Before I used to take these wings and I’d fly so high
(I’d fly so high. I tried…)
Now I live in regret never coming down to say goodbye
Oh why can’t I?

The man in black. He rides alone to a final destination unknown.
The man in black. He rides alone: he’s moving on.
I can’t follow.

I used to be the fearless one.
Living each day like death would never come
Now I feel his cold breath on my neck
He’s watching my steps and telling me that I could be next.

So make way for the man in black
So make way. He’s never coming back.

I am so lost at sea
Ryan, shine the light for me
I’m sinking, I can’t swim
I need you here to pull me in
I am so lost at sea
Ryan, shine your light for me
I’m sinking, I can’t swim
I miss you man.
You will never dim.

Tell me about the old days
Another night at the Copper Coin
Tell me about the old days
Put the sun into the sea

‘Cause there ain’t nothing like your smile, your legs and those eyes
And I will beg and steal and borrow to keep you safe your whole life

And it aint easy, to swim against the stream.
You’ll get exhausted, cause there will be two steps forward one step back you’ll see.

Call me the biggest selfish prick alive,
and I won’t contradict this time, oh no.
But I rather give it another try, than disappear into the horizon.

I know it aint easy, to fight against the stream.
You’ll get exhausted, but two steps forward one step back…… is what it takes.

We will all go down, with our noses up high.
We will leave this world, while our souls will rise.
We will all go down, with our noses up high.
We will look back to our failures, but at least we could say we’ve tried.

There aint no need for shame.
There aint no need to hide for all the things that went wrong.
For all the things that could be better.
Well forget about our failures, our mistakes and our fuckups.
It all make some sense.
We will learn our lessons before it all ends.

We will build a mountain, out of desert sand.
Where the headwind blows, the peak to begin.
Where the vultures are circling, waiting for us to drop.
We never spoke about a draw, never agreed on a stop.

And if we go down, we’ll go together.
And if you would fall, I would pick you up.
And one day it all gets better.
If we go, we’ll go together!

We won’t reach for the sky, cause we’re stuck on this ground.
I’m heading up north, while you stay down south, east, west
it depends where we go.
And I’m counting down the hours, while you try to forget the time.
And for me it’s a lifeline poetry, for you it’s an endless rhyme.

And if we go down, we’ll go together.
And if you would fall, I would pick you up.
And one day it all gets better.
If we go, we’ll go together!

And if we go down, we’ll go together.
And if you would fall, I would pick you up.
And one day it all gets better.
And if we go, and if we go, and when we go
we’ll go together!

The only thing I ever wanted,
Was to feel love for someone worth it,
Stood up a light house, waiting for her,
I’ve saved a seat by me, for who’ll catch this beam.

Tossed aside with nowhere to go
He falls flat on his face
In his quest for a place to call home
Live a lifetime in just 17 years
Tortured and neglected
He searches for solid ground
But still comes up short
Without his mother’s affection
He walks an empty street of insanity
It could have been me
It could have been you
