Don't try to figure me out Don't try you'll only fail I'm not a reed in the sand You're already starting to pale Everyone's gone for the summer again Something is building , I don't understand A hummingbird larks in my hand But I'm too busy chasing parades To ever love you the same Just breathe he's going away Pack up your jacket and shoes Kiss all my friends one more time Don't take a minute on paintings you see There's a curtain on the blinds Peeking is stealing the life you don't share There's a map of a memory, of us over there Dangerous questions are near I'm too busy chasing parades To love you the same Just breathe I'm going away and I-------- I-------- I--------
