End of Summer
The Killer And The Star Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You always see the good in everything
If you let it slip away it will tear you apart
You've never been down
You always see the killer in the woods
If he sets his sights on you, he could eat you alive
Maybe it's my fault
Could this be the end of summer?
Maybe it's my fault
Maybe I'm to blame
Could this be the end of summer?
You've never been down
You always see the good in everything
When you played with your soul
You commit with a smile
You've never been down
You always see the killer in the woods
If he sets his sights on you, he could eat you alive
Maybe it's my fault
Maybe I'm to blame
Could this be the end of summer?
Maybe it's my fault
Maybe I'm to blame
Could this be the end of summer?
This is not your day to play
Only faith could got you here
Did your moon just fall apart?
Send a star to replace your soul
Love wouldn't let you stay
It's like God was here
Maybe it's my fault
Maybe I'm to blame
Could this be the end of summer?
Maybe it's my fault
Maybe I'm to blame
Could this be the end of summer?
The lyrics of "End of Summer" by The Killer And The Star convey a message of reflecting on the inevitable end of good times and how it's not always easy to maintain positivity in the face of darkness. The first verse talks about two different attitudes towards life: one of unwavering optimism and one of cautious fear. The second verse brings in a sense of guilt and responsibility, questioning whether the end of summer is their fault. The chorus repeats this sentiment and leaves us with an unanswered question about whether this will truly be the end of summer.
