We watched the sun go down 
It made us happy 
We watched the sun go down 
It made us sad 
We watched the sun go down 
It made us happy 
We watched the sun go down 
It made us sad 
 
And the next day 
Another brutal sun 
And the next day  
I was still alone 
Even my phone didn't seem to recognise me 
(Or maybe my hand was just too sweaty) 
 
There's some kids flying high over the water 
Except this one 
He's a rope-swing bottler 
A group of kids getting high on one another 
Except for that one who turns to me and says 
 
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"All us fat kids understand  
"All us fat kids understand that you should  
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"Ignore the summer while you can" 
All the fat kids understand 
All the fat kids except me  
I thought 'No' 
Maybe this time I should risk it all  
Like I'm a show-off dad by a waterfall 
Is it time to risk it all? 
Like a show-off dad at the waterfall 
So what if he did die after all  
 
It's way too bright for me out here 
But I think I see your colours when I scrunch my eyes closed 
Let myself go blind out here 
Trying to see your colours when I scrunch my eyes closed 
Suppose that means I have seen you again 
In a lame sort of way it is not the end 
Close my eyes and I see you again 
But I still hear that fat kid saying  
 
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"All us fat kids understand  
"All us fat kids understand that you should  
"Ignore the summer while you can 
"Ignore the summer while you can" 
All the fat kids understand 
All the fat kids except me  
I thought 'No' 
Maybe this time I should risk it all  
Like I'm a show-off dad by a waterfall 
Is it time to risk it all? 
Like that show-off dad at the waterfall 
So what if he did die after all 
 
At the start of The Path to Wisdom 
That's where they put the tea shop 
And every single road-side shrine  
Seems to be a friend of mine 
There's a hint of cruelty in everything we do  
It's true 
There's a hint of cruelty in everything we do  
It's true 
It's true 
 
I watched the sun go down 
It made me happy 
I watched the sun go down 
It made me sad 
I watched the sun go down 
It made me happy 
I watched the sun go down 
It made me sad
