part i: so much time so much time lost to the waves lost to the waves so much time so much time giving up on the days losing touch with your ways i’ve been a terrible brother, a terrible son and laziness is the opposite of trying to have fun i've been a terrible friend to you, an unfunny joke and happiness is the antithesis of falling in love there’s no way i’m going home empty handed i’ve disappointed enough to learn i am burning i am burning to death i am trusting i am trusting to death i am so naive and i think you knew that there’s no way i’m coming home empty handed i am not coming home tonight sorry for all the pain i caused you, dad

part ii: i stopped by your house why'd you change the locks on me? i stopped by your house i must have missed you i stopped by your house i snuck out just to be locked out i stopped by your house your garage door was open i decided to take ride in your moms car i drove it down the block but the engine wouldn’t stop the engine wouldn’t stop i crashed that shit just down the road the steering wheel was on my chest there was glass on the pavement glass on the pavement and when the cops pulled over they told me i was gonna be dead and when the cops pulled over they told me i was already dead but when you came home and saw the car in pieces you only blame yourself you should only blame yourself

boys, outro 03:12
everyone says there’s so much fish in the sea so much so that i don’t think there’s any room for me no point in crying over a couple spoiled nights remember your face in the morning, in the daylight boys just wanna have fun oh boys just wanna have fun boys just wanna have fun oh boys just wanna have fun what's wrong going home empty handed you can't disappoint much more than you have your father he loved you, and you told him you were gay he took his time, but he never was okay and when your dad died, your mother had no one you brother was convicted years ago yet you spoke me soothing words in your french je t'aime, je t'aime, tu me manques, tu me manques and i could produce this song some more but i would rather just leave it alone and i know i’ve said mean words about you and this part, it hurts to sing boys just wanna have fun oh boys just wanna have fun oh michael i wanted to have fun and michael, where have you gone?

made with love, about a boy who i no longer talk to,
about love, about losing friends, about summer's end,
about closure, about surviving
