Summer

For my safety, I will stay behind
In my spaceship off a million lightyears
From any star of any kind
'Cause I've lived that myth, I know that rhyme

Like when Icarus thought he'd soar so high
Through the nebulas to that ball of fire
Oh, for shame! That boy just needed warmth
But his wax wings met that stellar torch

I wonder if we should mourn
Like the Phoenix, he burns reborn
He can fall now with no remorse

Captive by that flame
Summer's coming. I feel it out in space
A wave of heat. My helmet's in a daze
And now I'm trapped. Thought I got away

Now you've got me like a planet
That revolves around a sun
I am helpless to escape
Your gravity
Oh

As the sweat floats off my back
And delirium sets in
Will your starlight blind me
Forever more?

For my safety, I have been confined
To this spaceship off a million lightyears
From any star except this one
Crept on me, and now I am stuck

Crimson red as I look above
Madness overtakes my composure
Routine panic grips me, because
I don't think I can take more exposure

It's strange light reflects my dash
I start thinking it's not so bad
And maybe I've met my match

Captive by that flame
Summer's coming. I feel it out in space
A wave of heat. My helmet's in a daze
And now I'm trapped. Never got away

Now you've got me like a planet
That revolves around a sun
I am helpless to escape
Your gravity
Oh

As the sweat floats off my back
And delirium sets in
Will your starlight blind me
Forever more?
Oh

Trapped inside
Trapped inside
Trapped inside
Trapped inside
How can space be so wide
Yet I feel trapped inside?

Trapped inside
Trapped inside
Trapped inside
Trapped inside
How can space be so wide
Yet I feel trapped inside?
