August Caught up with Me

I thought that you were for me We rode down Conroe end streets Acted like we never saw it coming Ignorance is bliss until you're falling Calm before the storm and then you're walking away August caught up with me like a rainy day August burned bridges I thought would never break That doesn't mean it wasn't for the better Didn't mean you had to end up bitter Maybe you were bright and it was all just a mistake I thought that we would fix things Dropped me when things got too heavy Worked it out and made a better future That was right up until mid-October Can you really throw it out and wish it all away August caught up with me like a rainy day August burned bridges I thought would never break That doesn't mean it wasn't for the better Didn't mean you had to end up bitter Maybe you were bright and it was all just a mistake Six months gone by it frees up my mind To know you're not waiting around Cause I needed time to know what it's like I'm better without you around August caught up with me like a rainy day August took parts of me and I'm not the same
