Down and out. I leave in less than two weeks now. Somber faces, lingering hugs, familiar words of "we can't keep you to ourselves anymore". Everything is winding down to hit warp speed (or mach 3
). I'm packing things up, throwing things out, running all day to see as many people as possible and do as much as I can. I don't want to waste a moment. Sleep escapes me nightly as I fight to stay awake to talk to people, hang out with people, and get my stuff in order. I don't want to waste these few moments sleeping. I keep pushing the emotions to the side and stay busy so I can enjoy everything to the fullest. I want these days to be the best I have. They have been!
I love you. I'm going to miss you like crazy. You are all ready. I need you more than you need me. Shine bright. Did I mention that I love you? Oh good, cause I do.
Oh I want every second of the minutes in the hours of these days
Cause there's too many trees to climb
And secret spots to find down by the lake
Oh the fireflies are out and momma's calling now
We can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up older
We can't let these nights steal away half our lives
And we will spend our days finding helpless competition to defeat
Yeah we'll chase away the girls and pretend
that we don't want 'em on our street
Yeah the sun is running too
Being chased off by the moon
And we should go to bed but we'll catch fireflies instead
We can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up older
We can't let these nights steal away
And I don't want these days to ever be over
We can't let these nights just steal away
Oh just stay awake with me
Won't you stay awake with me
Oh stay awake with me
We can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up older
We can't let these nights steal away
And I don't want these days to ever be over
We can't let these nights steal away half our lives
