I'm already scared of the winter even though summer's taking her sweet time to start
It's her manipulative art
She's full of greed, she's such a tease with neon blues and greens and sweaty palms
She tricks your heart into thinking that it's calm
But then the rain comes back like it always does

Every noon of every June I used to sit beside my window sill and stare
Up at the gray skies, she didn't even care
That I had waited, calculated all the lakes that I would swim
And all the carnival games I'd win
If it would only clear up by then I'd lift my chin

So I will try
I will wait patiently for July
Or move to somewhere with a clearer sky
And when I do
Life will be yellow I won't sink into the blues

And so I tried
I couldn't wait patiently for July
So I moved to somewhere with a clearer sky
But when I did
I only missed the rain
