First Breakdown Of The Summer

When was the last time you felt something that lasted? You say you're feeling fine, but you know you're not past it You think you're getting old; 30 seemed so far not long ago You don't have much time to salvage what is left The weekend's gone again, bringing back that horrid sense of dread All that time you spent, with nothing left to show for in the end Empty bottles strewn around, getting closer to the ground Cover up your face, 'cause this is going to hurt I think we're falling We're going under It's your first breakdown Down of the summer Won't you catch a breath, focus on something that you can see You seem scared to death, take as long a break as you might need Tell me something that you like, something that might help to ease All the fear inside your heart, won't you, please I think we're falling We're going under How ordinary These material comforts Your friends are going to stay You're thankful that they came They won't quite understand the pain But they'll still love you all the same When was the last time you felt something that lasted? You say you're feeling fine, but you know you're not past it You think you're getting old; 30 seemed so far not long ago (Empty bottles strewn around, getting closer to the ground) (Oh, how ordinary) You don't have much time to salvage what is left (Cover up your face, 'cause this is going to hurt) (These material comforts) Fallen leaves along the street, rustling underfoot The smell of petrichor abounds, it seems so nice I think it's time to leave the party There's no need to feel ashamed if it's too much I think we're falling We're going under I hope you'll find some Way to recover Your friends are going to stay You're thankful that they came They won't quite understand the pain (Tell me something that you like, something that might help to ease) But they'll still love you all the same (All the fear inside your heart, won't you, please)
