    Skin under sun

    Summer breeze

    Summer break

    Oh, I was young then

    Hadn’t made

    My mistake

    Unaware of the fall

    Unaware of my fate

    There was peace in the valley

    Til I made my mistake

    Quick in the night

    As the storm took its shape

    Caught at the border

    As I made my escape

    It was cold

    It was dark

    You were cruel

    You were fake

    Hoping for kindness

    Was my greatest mistake

    Beep

    I was young then

    Hadn't made my mistake

    There was choice to get out

    Or remain in this state

    There was springtime and future

    Til I made my mistake

    Quick in the night

    As the storm took its shape

    Caught at the border

    As I made my escape

    It was cold

    It was dark

    You were cruel

    You were fake

    Hoping for kindness was my greatest mistake
