Summertime No Show

Monday morning, the sun is high

And i just don't feel that today

Should be laid to waste.

You see they've been calling

An absent body always seems to cause some concern

But i'll never learn

Cause i'm holding on

And i'm too far gone

So believe me when i say

That i will not be there.

You can try to say

That i'm wasting my time

But that's hard to consider

When i'm sitting out here.

I feel the ocean

The breeze that's blowing in my lungs and i take it all down

Then pass it around.

I'll live the simple life

And prove to you that a life resolved

Is not that far.

I've an offer,

A care free job in a world that will take you away

And you start today.

Cause i'm holding on

And i'm too far gone

So believe me when i say

That i will not be there.

You can try to say

That i'm wasting my time

But that's hard to consider

When i'm sitting out here.

Why look at the time?

Try believing by seeing whats coming to you through my eyes

You might see the ocean, my toes in the sand.

You might see why im choosing to ignore all of your demands

Cause i'm holding on

And i'm too far gone

So believe me when i say

That i will not be there.

You can try to say

That i'm wasting my time

But that's hard to consider

When i'm sitting out here.
