It's hard for me [bad word] Holding on with broken hands
But who will understand
Wallow in the acid rain
What's in store for us today
It's never gonna feel the same
I'm waiting for an angel now
To carry me above the clouds

Cause it's a long way home for the summer
And it's a long way up without a ladder
It's a long way home
And it's a long way down

Swallowing the bitter taste
Trying to find a remedy
Before the crystal breaks
Looking at a picture show
Frame by frame you see us grow
To something you don't know
You're trying to find a reason now
Behind a face, you see a child

It's a long way home for the summer
And it's a long way up without a ladder
And it's a long way home
And it's a long way down

Life's a picture show
Frame by frame we grow
