Augustus and the Holiday

Hypothetically, I say that I don't go
Would it open your eyes? Would it leave me alone?
If I say that I won't go
I memorize lines on things I wouldn't comprehend or care

With great motivation, I craft illustrations
I don't care for anyone but us two now
See I've got some goals to meet and you've got some things to read
It might sound strange but it's the same on different planes

Oh, drift along my little wind chime
Made of porcelain and glass that I refined
Oh, you will find me in the springtime
You'll be a butterfly but I'll keep my cocoon

You wished it all, you wished it all
You wished it all away
I'll wish it all, I'll wish this all away
I'll change my life today

I'll let you know, I'll let you know
That I won't be gone too long
Still-frame that photograph I gave you and keep it deep inside
Just let me know, just let me know

Despite if we argue, I need, hold, and love you
This is nothing new, you know we've done this before
This is nothing new, I think that we can take more
(Don't say that you miss me too much)
(I feel it too)

With much hesitation, begin contemplation
Jump from your window into my arms right now
We'll take I-69, pay no mind to exit signs
Because we're living free for the first time right now

Sing along, my little songbird
When you hear your favorite melody arise
Oh, if I called her Carolina
Would it bring back summer memories that passed?

You wished it all, you wished it all
You wished it all away
I'll wish it all, I'll wish this all away
I'll change my life today

Blue eyes, watch like fire the sea of faces 'til we drown
Keep calm, act like nothing happened, we won't be found out
And I would never let you down, I would never let you down
But this is something I must do, this is something I must do for myself

You wished it all, you wished it all
You wished it all away
Oh, I wish it all, I'll wish this all away
I'll change my life today

When summer gets here, I'll start new
I'll shade my eyes and think of you, Monday will be Friday
The only things I'll keep the same
Are my missed notes and my slight frame
I'll even change my name, I'll even change my name
