Summertime Can Kill You


summertime can kill you, you hid behind your troubles like i never knew, lies, lies, lies, oh you've made me so blue

i know its hard for you just to admit your problems, you call them off, you never solve them

and how can i ever trust you, so many lies, how can i tell if you're telling the truth

and you've been wearing so many faces around town, i'm beginning to wonder if you're even the girl i've seen around

because summertime can kill you, and i know, i know this is so true, because i was just fine before i met you

now i'm sitting here by myself and i'm so blue, maybe i should kill myself, maybe i should kill you

or maybe i should just forget, or maybe i should just forget, or maybe i should just forget, or maybe i should just forget

or maybe i should just forget, or maybe i should just forget......
