lyrics

I heard, "welcome to a summer day
I hope you make it count I hope you like it.
There's a thousand ways to live
And there's a thousand ways to die
I hope you try it."

Yesterday's gone
But don't forget

'Cause you can learn from pain and bitterness
And the people that you hurt
I hope you do it
Soon they'll all be distant memories
Anecdotes to tell your kids
Before you knew it

The sorrow brought you here
To these arms

They should hate you for the things you did
Your ugly little past but they've all got one
You're not so different after all
The tears and time spent crying out to no one

And yesterday's gone
So greet your future

She says, "Welcome to a summer day,
You'll never make it count
And you can't stand it.
Though your heart is full of life
You see a future packed with death
But you still try it.

But there will be time
For tears in the future."

The Snake Armed Man recommends:

Kinkajou
by Hapopy

It'll melt your brain. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing. It's extremely abrasive and undeniably strange. So strange it's kind of a difficult listen, albeit it inexplicably addictive. The Snake Armed Man
