Lyrics:
I spent the summer with my best friends
But just can't seem to get you out my head
We hold the world off just to make it through
And talk all night of what it's coming to

Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't say goodbye

Best damn summer we ever had
Lipstick stains come from the past
You're the one, we were falling in love for the first time

We heard the footsteps on the pier above
The water at our feet, we laughed and shrugged
We got so high that night
Saw the world in your eyes
Took pills to get the chills
Now I just want to take my life

Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't say goodbye

Best damn summer we ever had
Lipstick stains come from the past
You're the one, we were falling in love for the first time

Best damn summer we ever had
Best damn summer we ever had
Best damn summer we ever had
Best damn summer we ever had
Best damn summer we ever had 
Best damn summer we ever had

Summer Sonnet

Written at a difficult time in life, absolutely nothing was going right. Originally a suicide note, but translated into lyrics to turn into a song to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention. 

Look out for your loved ones, you never know who is struggling.

Lyrics:
[Verse]
Please, can you hear me?
Every shred of hope's been pulverized
Am I bored? Or am I lonely?
Doing everything I can just to survive
Now I can't face me
Broken mirror, shattered crystal on the floor
Pouring rain outside my window
I can't do this anymore

[Chorus]
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time

[Verse]
Please, do you know me?
Cause it seems I don't even know myself
Do you recognize me?
This reflection belongs to someone else
Now I can't face me
There's a halo 'round my neck once more
Please know I love you
I can't do this anymore

[Chorus]
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time

[Bridge]
I wrote notes to let you know
This is me letting go
But I know you'll move on
Don't miss me when I'm gone
I wrote notes to let you know
This is me letting go
But I know you'll move on
Don't miss me when I'm gone

[Chorus]
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time
Face down, I'm not alright
Beat down for another night
Torn part, about to flatline
In the end, we all run out of time
