Summer
Navigating Shadows of a Summer's Tale
Lyrics
Summer’s not that simple for me, darling
Summer holds complexities and challenges for me, my dear.
When you leave the room, please draw the curtains
When you depart, please close the curtains, symbolizing a desire for privacy or closure.
Is summer easy for you, darling?
Do you find summer to be effortless and enjoyable, darling?
Have you kissed the pretty face of morning?
Have you experienced the beauty and freshness of a new day?
Summer’s not that simple for me, darling
Summer isn't straightforward or easy for me, dear.
Somehow I seemed to miss the calling
I seem to have missed my opportunity or purpose.
Now all the girls have been enlightened
Other girls seem to have gained understanding or enlightenment.
But I slept late and I’m behind them
However, I lag behind because I overslept or missed something.
But with it all so bright
Despite the brightness around, coping becomes increasingly challenging if it's just a passing phase.
It’s getting harder to get by with it is just a phase
Surviving becomes tougher when it's difficult to believe it's just temporary.
And there’ll be better days
Hope exists for better times ahead.
Now all the girls have all gone golden
Other girls have embraced the essence of summer, portraying a radiant state.
‘Cause they have let the summer hold them
They've allowed the season to influence and change them positively.
And if I just don’t ever see them
If I avoid seeing them, I can pretend not to desire to emulate them.
Well, I can pretend I don’t ever wanna be them
I can pretend not to aspire to be like those who embraced the summer's essence.
But with it all so bright
The difficulty of coping persists if it's considered only a passing phase.
It’s getting harder to get by with it is just a phase
Survival becomes more challenging if it's hard to believe it's temporary.
And there’ll be better days
Hope remains for better days ahead.
She says I’m the best you’ll get
Someone perceives me as the best option available, accompanied by a sense of regret.
And there’s a special kind of regret
There's a particular type of remorse associated with those who conceal themselves.
For the ones who hide
For those who avoid or hide away.
From my perfect sky
For those who avoid my idealized sky or perspective.
For the ones who hide
Repeated line - for those who hide away.
From the light
For those who evade the light.
