The Library Stamped My Summer

School's out My family's off to work I took a shortcut through the library Cut through the mystery section It didn't take long Then walked home alone The library stamped my summer Every week in violet ink No one asked why I came early No one hurried me back out The library stamped my summer I was lonely I was there I turned off my phone Avoided the children I grew up with When I see them now They ask me where I went I always say I don't know The library stamped my summer Every week in violet ink No one asked why I came early No one hurried me back out The library stamped my summer I was lonely I was there But not really anywhere The library stamped my summer Every week in violet ink No one asked why I came early No one hurried me back out The library stamped my summer I was lonely I was there
