Summer Vacation is a concept album that uses the thematic backdrop of a youthful and joyous season to recontexualize a traumatic youth with a new found freedom in queerness and all while experiencing climate grief in an increasingly confused and chaotic world.
Summer Vacay the song marks the end of youth with the acceptance of queerness.
lyrics
Did you see me today?
I think I need to be seen, I mean I’m wearing black jeans they’ve always worked for me.
But tonight’s quite the showing you’re collectively glowing it’s like you’re all dripping
Dipped in candy
When I peel off the layers will I have any takers? Breaking off piece I feel like a faker kneel before my maker and I take it
Split the seam on the dream now I don’t I wanna wake up
Apologies for the shake up
Once a fool to have doubted you
Way back when… before before this all started
Summer’s on the decline
Summer’s on the decline
Summer’s on the decline
It’s gone
Summer’s on the decline
My chair I'm try’na recline
Summer’s on the decline
I'm told
I'm told what’s there
Don’t show please share
I’m told don’t show
Don’t show
What’s there…
Twice a fool, I doubted you
Way back when before before this all started
Summer’s on the decline
Summer’s on the decline
Summer’s on the decline
It’s gone
Summer’s on the decline
My chair I'm try’na recline
Summer’s on the decline
I'm told
I'm told what’s there
Don’t show please share
I’m told don’t show
Don’t show
What’s there…
