Never Late

Kelsey W.

Class of 2026

Waves crashing on the shore, Iyou don’t hear sounds like that anymore

The house is that rustic red,youd see when christmas is ahead

Everything appears the same, I’m the only one whose changed

Look around at the walls and the shelf, in all the pictures I see myself

This place is like a lucid dream, the kind no

one would believe

It lets you fall asleep, and dream of what life

used to be

You decide your fate, here youre never late Fall asleep on the porch couch, now I’m infront

of this house

Walk in and I know, this is where I’m meant to go

the people from the picture, stand infront of me much bigger

Present and past generations, making future declarations

[Chorus

Please pet me stay, I te a point to enve

wanna be

If it’s Ba a tree, or if all I wants to be free They will agree

[chorus]

You decide your fate, here you’re never late (2x)
