Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I’ll Forget About You (In Time)’: I don’t know what you saw in me You’ve broken me I don’t believe I’ll fall in love again
Summer regrets it all—the joint missions, the changed seating in classes and at lunch, the shared glances, the gentle touch, the memory of a love that once was—she’s broken now and she knows she’ll never find a love quite like the one she had with Jade. She’ll never forget him even when she dies
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I’ll Forget About You (In Time)’: Went home to my mother and cried She said, “You will find another in this life
Then news came of a mission turned sour. One miscalculation. One mistaken ally… Jade went to take down Bell Tech and never returned. Summer doesn’t think she’s cried harder in her life and she literally can’t recognise her own face. Her mother’s tried comforting her but nothing dulls the ache.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I’ll Forget About You (In Time)’: I’ll forget about him in time (In time) Oh (In time, in time) I’ll forget about him, won’t I?
Breaking up with Jade hadn’t stopped the danger she put herself in, hadn’t stopped the risks he took or the amount of jobs she took on. It hadn’t stopped Summer’s anxiety or her heartache or her sleepless nights. It only made Jade harder to forget, harder to let go of, harder to stop loving.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I’ll Forget About You (In Time)’: Erase you from my periphery Delete you from everything I see I’ll forget about you in time
Being a vigilante is dangerous, there’s not enough for you to fall back on, no guaranteed safety. And Jade doesn’t care about the risk on her own life so long as she’s doing the right thing. He cared so much about everyone and everything. Summer wishes she could forget it all, could forget him.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I’ll Forget About You (In Time)’: I knew I had to do it, break it off Now I feel ruined
— I’ll Forget About You (In Time)
Summer knew breaking up with Jade was the best thing she could’ve possibly done. That doesn’t mean she wanted to. She loves Jade with everything she has, loves him as easily as breathing, as certainly as the sun will rise tomorrow. But she must protect her heart

A close of of laufey sitting upon a marble bench like structure covered in vines. She wears knee-length white socks, red heeled mary-jane esc shoes, and a checkered red, yellow and black spaghetti strap dress that reaches her mid thighs. The image crops at her shoulders so you can only see her from there down

this is. Wait for her to part ways now before they get in too deep. There’s part of Jade who sometimes thinks she already has, what with all the danger he puts himself in, Summer’s sure to want to leave already.
Even if not how he expected, in his final hour, Jade is vindicated he’s right.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: I wait for the tears when you smile Search for the lies out your teeth
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: But worst of them all I wait got you to fall Out of love with me
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: I wait for the day when you finally say You’re out of love with me
Jade knows this thinking is detrimental, knows this is just her anxiety impacting everything he does, but it’s hard to let go when the evidence is all there.
So, despite not wanting to, Jade waits for Summer to fall out of love, waits for Summer to finally realise how reckless and stupid and doomed
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: Bam-bam, bam-bam I hesitate Accept my hapless fate I wait, I wait, I wait
sick before they’re allowed to truly be anything together. Jade is almost certain it will happen. Why should meeting the love of his life be met with any other kind of fate? Why should Jade believe she’ll get a happy ending here when all of his other endings have been anything but?
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: I wait for the thunder in sunshine Wait for sickness in health
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: I wait for the sorrow The blue of tomorrow Regrets of yesterday
He’s gotten used to always waiting for the other shoe to drop. It’s only inevitable she’ll lose Summer too. She’ll lose interest, be disappointed in everything she does. Summer will push him to the side, like most people she’s loved has done, and Jade will be alone again. Or worse, she’ll die or get
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘I Wait, I Wait, I Wait’: I wait for an earthquake in silence Wait for nightmares in a dream
— I Wait, I Wait, I Wait
Jade has never really gotten to keep anything she loved. His first lucky charm, favourite toy gadgets, favourite instrument, her family home, the closeness with his cousins, her parents, his twin sister; they were all taken from her before she was ready to let them go.

Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: Don’t cut strings to attach to Just some far-sought silhouette A journey that I’ll one day dread
friends? No where to to be found. She curses herself for her foolishness as much as she curses the world for taking Jade from her, now matter how frustrated she made her feel.
Now she’s stuck with an addiction she cannot kick and a loneliness far greater than she’s ever experienced.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: But baby, with you, that’s just how I get (The pendulum swings back around)
together and filling the silence with sometimes gentle conversation, other times frustrated curses. Summer couldn’t understand how she could get this was with someone. Now, after the showdown with the Trickster, Summer is left alone, her perfect nature entirely disrupted and one of her closest

into the moon’s no matter how catastrophic the consequences.
Then the job with Dr. Ramere happened and Jade was one of two people who were there to help Summer make sense of herself. Pick up the pieces and help her remember what she even looked like. They found empty rooftops to talk on, smoking
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: I’m caught up in a web I’m blinded by you, that’s just how I get
other’s nerves. Summer’s perfection had cracked under the pressure. Anger bubbled under her skin for often than serenity,
And the worst part was, Summer couldn’t even find it within herself to care, so long as she could continue this Thing with Jade. Whatever it was. She was the sun being pulled
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: Don’t do things I’ll regret Don’t mood swing, shoulder bets But baby, with you, that’s just how I get
of the Prime Defenders pushing her to the side and suddenly there was a whole new thing to dislike about Jade: his contempt for the superhero system as a whole. Then they were shoulder-checking each other in the hallways, arguing while out on patrol, and finding any little reason to get on each
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: Human nature is strange I know you’re bad for me
So much changed when she met Jade Ngô.
Jade, who seemed to come out of nowhere, fighting for Summer’s spot as the top of the class, scoffing whenever she was brought up, and holding as much annoyance for Summer as she held for Jade. Then Summer got more involved with the superhero academy curtesy
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: Has addiction come for me?

was friendly, approachable, and got along with most everybody. She didn’t smoke, she didn’t cheat, she didn’t break any rules (except to find a secluded place to study or read), she didn’t complain. Summer Dileo was the perfect model student of Centurion High because she had to be, needed to be.
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘How I Get’: And I never feel rage At least not so easily
— How I Get
Summer Dileo has always strived for perfection- in her grades, her manner, her presentation, her behaviour, her performances…
Summer Dileo and “perfect” were two things she Needed to be aligned. She was on the cheer team, she was the top of her classes, she wasn’t loud or snobby, she

Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘Madwoman’: It’s like the gods above us don’t approve We’ve been through this before, fell in love and said no more
each other’s nerves more then they really should. It was distracting. It was everything. Naturally, it’s Summer who pulls back like she’s the ocean tides and not the sun dimming behind WATCH. She leaves and Jade let’s her because she knows Summer will be back - they’re both madwomen after all
Lyrics for Laufey’s ‘Madwoman’: Made it to the final hour But the wine begins to sour
They start dating, against their better judgment. Kisses on the job are contrasted with arguments at home.. or is it the other way? Jade is too in love to care and she thinks so is Summer. They push and pull at each other, understand each other in a way no one else has before, and yet seem to get on
