Lyrics
You cut a hole in the summer
You disrupted a harmonious period in your life during the summer.
That splintered your mind
This disruption caused mental fragmentation or distress.
Just to say you're fine
You went through this turmoil just to claim that everything is okay.
And do you remember who you are anymore
You're questioning your identity and self-awareness.
A good friend, a better man with the best plan
You were once a good friend and a morally superior person with a solid plan.
It's hard to summarize all the steps up to your ignorance
Summarizing the steps leading to your ignorance is challenging.
And there's a reason that I say no to cigarettes
You have a principled stance against cigarettes.
I already have too much on my chest
Your burdens are already overwhelming, making it difficult to handle more.
But you still fill your lungs with the smoke of a broken man's suffering
Despite this, you engage in destructive behaviors symbolized by smoking.
And something's got your tongue
Something is preventing you from expressing yourself.
Before you can say to yourself that your eyes are too closed to open up
You can't admit to yourself that you need to change.
And It's so hard to watch you fall down
Witnessing the decline of someone close is emotionally difficult.
From the top of the world, to six feet underground
From a position of success, you've descended to a grave situation.
You showed the way you felt for a few days
You expressed your emotions briefly and then attempted to suppress them.
And then you tried to drown it out
Attempts to drown out emotions led to negative consequences.
I guess it dragged the rest of you down
Suppressing emotions affected your overall well-being.
Because you slowly started to change your ways
Your behaviors started changing gradually.
And your constant intoxications
Constant indulgence in destructive habits.
Turn into public demonstrations
These habits turned into public displays of your struggles.
Of how you'll never make it out alive
Your situation seems dire, and survival appears unlikely.
And your heart's too drunk to let your brain drive
Your emotions control you more than rational thinking.
But your brain is deteriorating
Your mental state is deteriorating.
As fast as my hope for you could bear
Hope for your improvement diminishes rapidly.
But that doesn't mean that I don't care
Despite the decline, there's still concern and care.
Cause I still care, I'll always care
Expressing ongoing care for the person in distress.
And it's so hard to watch you fall down
Reiteration of the emotional difficulty in witnessing the decline.
From the top of the world, to six feet underground
Re-emphasizing the drastic fall from success to a dire situation.
But your blanks stares don't mean you're spaced out
Your vacant expressions don't indicate disinterest but replay past struggles.
They just play the flashbacks from before you broke down
Flashbacks remind you of the time before the emotional breakdown.
