Summertime
Has crystallized
Ice blurring glass window panes
Tantalized
Hypnotized
“You’re happy, you’re happy,” they say
Try hard as I may
Think I’m losing my mind
I’m afraid
Nauseated isolation
The ballroom was flooded by crowds
And all their mesmerized
Eagle eyes
Watched me collapse to the ground
Under all of the haze
And their gaze
I just needed a place
To lie down
So, I’m not leaving the house today
I’ve run out of words I can say
Now, nowhere feels safe anymore
I’m calling in sick to the rest of this year
Nothing you see here is as it appears
I had hopes but I don’t think I can go on with the show
Foul play at the cabaret
Our bodies were covered in chills
Helter skelter
In gold decanters
Was melting the floor where it spilled
Let’s all raise a toast
To the things we love the most
Turning to smoke
So, I’m not leaving the house today
I’ve run out of words I can say
Now, nowhere feels safe anymore
I’m calling in sick to the rest of this year
Nothing you see here is as it appears
I had hopes but I don’t think I can go on with the show
And if I had the chance
I’d start over again
Back to where we began
I’d start over again
I’m not leaving the house today
I’m calling in sick to the rest of this year
Nothing you see here is as it appears
You can all go back home
Don’t think I can go on with the show
And if I had the chance
I’d start over again
I’d forgive and forget
And start over again
