Fading Streetlights

My brother's packing for the football camp Left his worn-out cleats beneath

the porch lamp

Now the quiet halls feel three times as wide

And I am

sitting with this shadow inside

They say a year is nothing but a breeze

But winter's coming, freezing up the trees

I just wanna be with my brother

Running down the street,

chasing summer

All day until the stars start to die

Underneath this big heavy sky

My dad is looking for his car keys on the stand

My mom is trying hard to make me understand

They do their best,

they love me every single day But there's some moments I just

want to run away

I just wanna be with my brother

Running down the street,

chasing summer

All day until the stars start to die

Underneath this big heavy sky

This is the time we shine,

here and now

Even when the dark is coming down
