Comment: I felt for this song because I also don’t know how to swim. I love summer vacation but I’m not fond of swimming especially in open waters. So I guess summer is a double-edged sword for me. But now that my arguably most fun summer is coming to an end, I don’t want it to end. This summer is <3. 

Lyrics:

I’m afraid of summer
because you know I can’t swim
I get lost in the water
when the tide pulls me in 

below her gently 
her feet in the clay 
she searches for answers 
in his shadowy face 

I’m afraid of summer 
because you know I can’t swim 
I get lost in the water 
when the tide pulls me in 

the neighbors whisper 
wonder if they should care 
they find her talking with no one 
softly kissing the air 

down the stairwell 
the day that he left 
her body remembers 
what the mind will forget 

I’m afraid of summer 
because you know I can’t swim 
I get lost in the water 
when the tide pulls me in 

you can never go home
