August Stars - Helder

I saw the august stars

go swimming in the park

and children give the dark

the time to be a part

forgot to be aware

to forget what keeps me there

as lovers come to share

I lost the need to care

I don’t know

why summer goes

silent though

you don’t know

the water ever waits

the water’s never late

I hear the water say

don’t be afraid

it doesn’t matter how long the road

it doesn’t matter how far you go

at the end it’s still you, you know

it is still you, you know

the past possesses everything I know

the past confesses everything I don’t

undresses everything

nostalgia becomes a drug

when you feel like getting out of luck

ran over by a truck

treated like a little fuck
