about

‘Summer Is Over’ is the final single to be released from my upcoming project ‘Pencil In Regret’. ‘Summer Is Over’ is an upbeat and serene banger that takes you back to when summers lasted forever and school days seemed so far away. It captures that melancholy feeling when the summer is drawing to a close, and your summer romance didn’t pan out the way you had hoped. The track is lushly produced, with warm vocal melodies, a playful bassline, melancholy guitars and a vibrant rhythm section that was produced by collaborator Conor Barry.

“I would describe ‘Summer Is Over’ as my first sincere attempt at writing a single. The production feels like it’s a big step in the right direction for me, it all sounds very clean and proper, yet it still sounds like me. It’s definitely my best song to date. The song is about the willful ignorance that a young man may adopt instead of facing a very real rejection; it’s about focusing on what makes you warm and fuzzy inside and not what makes you uncomfortable. This kind of behaviour will catch up with you eventually, but in the moment it provides a sense of comfort. It might be naïve, but it’s nice.”

lyrics

These days blow by, two at a time
Not a great thing, with a girl like mine

But I know
That she’ll
Pull through (Pull on through)

Yes, I know
That she’ll
Pull through

Sometimes I think, what a waste of time
But a smile from her, makes time rewind

Yes, I know
She likes me, too

Yes, I know
She likes me, too

Summer is over
And my dreams never came true
Summer is over
But I know she likes me too

Sometimes I think, what a waste of time
But a smile from her, makes time rewind


Yes, I know
She likes me, too

Yes, I know
She likes me, too

Summer is over
And my dreams never came true
Summer is over
But I know she likes me too
