Lyrics

Summer's always longer than the three months we're allotted

Reflecting on the perception that summer feels longer than its designated three months.

Wasting time on people that we'll never see

Investing time in relationships with people who won't be part of one's future.

Living in our parent houses we'd forgotten

Living in parental homes, neglecting or forgetting about individual growth.

In neighborhoods that play out like a scene

Residing in neighborhoods that resemble scenes from an indie movie.

From an indie movie

Comparing experiences to those found in independent films.

Getting high and realizing what that means

Using drugs and realizing the consequences of altered states of mind.

On the swing sets that we conquered

Remembering past conquests and experiences on swing sets.

And now I sit in her apartment

Sitting in someone else's apartment, observing a new romantic relationship.

Sharing glances with the boyfriend that replaced me

Noticing exchanged glances with a former lover's new partner.

Through weed smoke and TV

Amidst the influence of marijuana and television.

Lights

Referring to city lights or significant events.

Racing down the boulevard that raised me

Speeding down the familiar boulevard that shaped one's upbringing.

Woah, I'll flip my car again

Expressing a reckless attitude, possibly in a metaphorical sense.

Shit's upside down anyway

Accepting chaos or disruption as the norm.

Summers always feel a little shorter than the last one

Noting the perception that each summer feels shorter than the previous one.

Getting into shit you wouldn't think before

Engaging in activities that were previously deemed unlikely or inappropriate.

Who'd've thought you'd be the person that you asked for

Surprising oneself by becoming the person one desired or sought.

Who'd've thought that you could ever be a bore

Realizing that one can also be dull or uninteresting.

Now we're standing on the rooftop

Standing on a rooftop, contemplating a potentially risky leap.

Thinking that the jump it doesn't seem so far

Considering a jump into the unknown, perhaps metaphorically.

So we jump into the water

Recalling carefree actions similar to those of school kids.

Cannonball like school kids

Contrasting the past with the present, where such bold actions are avoided.

But we're older now and we don't jump at all

Choosing not to take risks or make daring leaps.

And we wanna see our name in

Expressing a desire for recognition, possibly in a public setting.

Lights

Referring to city lights or significant events (repeated).

Racing down the boulevard that raised me

Reiterating the experience of speeding down a boulevard from one's past.

Woah, I'll flip my car again

Expressing a reckless attitude, possibly in a metaphorical sense (repeated).

Shit's upside down

Accepting chaos or disruption as the norm (repeated).
