Days of Summer
Topas Lyrics

Days of summer your end is in sight.
The summer days are coming to an end, and it's time to prepare for it.

So herald the birds on the wing.
Let's greet the birds that are flying high in the sky as they are a sign of the coming end of the summer days.

Look to the heavens and see how they fly.
Observe the flight of the birds and learn from their freedom to soar high into the sky.

And hear well the song that they sing.
Listen intently to the sweet melody of the birds' song that echoes across the sky.

Southwards they're flying, their homes left behind.
The birds have set off on their journey towards the south, leaving their homes behind.

Unchained by the nests that they've made.
The birds are free from the restraints that come with their nests, and are able to embark on their journey without any concerns.

They're following the sun as they always have done.
The birds are following a path that they have always taken, guided by the sun on their journey.

Not waiting, not wanting, not afraid.
The birds are not waiting or afraid, and they have no desire for anything except the journey they are currently undertaking.

Ask now yourself what your goal is in life,
Take a moment to reflect on what your life's purpose is.

that's holding you tight as a chain.
Think about the things that are restricting you or holding you back from achieving your purpose.

Prisoned by progress, desire and greed.
Consider how materialistic desires and greed have become a prison for you, preventing you from finding true freedom and purpose.

Have you traded your freedom for gain?
Question whether you have given up your freedom in exchange for materialistic gain.

Trained to be tame from the day you were born.
From the moment you were born, society has trained you to conform and be tame.

You can still break away if you try.
You have the ability to break away from societal norms and expectations if you make the effort to do so.

So fight against drudgery, you're really a man.
Resist the dullness and monotony of daily life, and remember your true potential as a human being.

Awaken and look to the sky
Wake up to the possibilities that life has to offer, and embrace the freedom and beauty of the natural world.
