water bugs lyrics
by June Henry
The water bugs are skating on the creek
I’ve started counting down the days instead of weeks
This’ll be the last
Summer I’ll feel
That’s exactly
Like this
Fleeting days aren’t ever growing fear
I fear I’ve already lived all the days
That I know I’m gonna miss
The rain comes down in waves of two and three
It’s filling up the basement and the street
Maybe I’ll be a dead end academic in a dead end town
Maybe I’ll just leave the planet or burn the wholе thing down
All I know for sure’s I’m stupid and I think that’s okay
My only worry is that I’m always gonna be this way
All I know for sure’s I’m stupid and I think that’s okay
My only worry is that I’m always gonna bе this way
The water bugs are skating on the creek
I’ve started counting down the days instead of weeks
