The Last Day of Summer

What do you do when the quest has ended? What do you do when the battle's won? So many questions left unanswered So many things still left undone What do you do when it's up to you to choose Has something ended or begun? Stay or go, pick one Do I stay because it's safer? Back to the home I left behind? I could stay and train for a piece of the action But what about peace of mind? Ugh, what's my deal? Why do I feel there's something left I still need to find? Where do you go when it's over? What do you do when you've come to the last day of summer? Attention, campers It's the last day of summer If you intend to make me miserable year-round, please inform us by sundown Otherwise, the cleaning harpies will eat anyone who remains! Perry Johanssen, this means you It's Percy Jackson! Whatever! How come you don't go home? I tried Once My dad couldn't deal with the monster attacks, and my stepmom couldn't deal with me It's just asking for trouble Sometimes family is worth the trouble Believe me I guess we both have a choice to make Seaweed brain Where do you go when it's over? What do you do when you've come to the last day of summer? Luke! If it isn't the big hero I've barely seen you since I got back, you avoiding me? Not at all Tough last day? I thought when I finished my quest, everything would make sense, but it doesn't It's the last day of summer, but I don't feel like anything's over I get it My quest was supposed to be the biggest thing in my life I came back changed, but the rest of camp was exactly the same Chiron always says our parents made camp As this safe magic space The truth? It's so they don't have to see us They won't bother to show their face It's time to make the world our own Time someone put them in their place Ares thought we were starting a war between the gods, but it was bigger than that It's about wiping them out and taking our turn You're the lightning thief The Oracle warned you, "betrayed by a friend" You set me up You were trying to free Kronos Why? He promised me the power to defeat our parents Yeah, he's using you to get back at the gods! Good! I've been here since I was a kid I did everything they ever asked, yeah, I did And for what? You know this world will never be ours (what do you do) As long as our parents rule over the stars (on the last day of summer?) So I'll do anything (summer, summer) I don't care if I hurt anyone (summer, summer, summer, summer) It doesn't pay to be a good kid, a good kid, a good son (summer, summer, summer, summer, summer, summer) (Summer, summer, summer) The gods were never on our side (summer, summer, summer, summer) So I think it's time we watch them fall (summer, summer, summer, summer) And soon you'll see what I did (summer, summer, summer) Soon there'll be no gods at all! (Summer, summer, summer, summer, summer, summer!)
