The Last Day of Summer (Part 1) [Original]

Lyrics

[PERCY] 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 [ANNABETH] Do I stay because it's safer? Or back to the home I left behind? Training and training for a piece of the action It doesn't bring you peace of mind What do you say when you push it away, your family? Are you scared what you'll find? [GROVER] Where do you go when it's over? [ALL] What do you do when you've come to the last day of summer? [PERCY, spoken] Luke! [LUKE, spoken] Well, if it isn't the big hero? [PERCY, spoken] Yeah, I've barely seen you since I got back. You avoiding me? [LUKE, spoken] Of course not. What's on your mind? [PERCY, spoken] I need your advice. Chiron's been hinting I could use a lot more training [LUKE, spoken] I get it. Camp's fun for the summer, but there's bigger things out there [LUKE] I didn't know what lies out there With a (?) you'll finally find some space Stay and do your parents' bidding They won't bother to show their face It's time we make the world our own Time someone put them in their place! [ALL] Where do you go when it's over? What do you do when it comes to the last day of summer? [LUKE, spoken] I've been here ever since I was a kid [ENSEMBLE] (repeating under Luke's dialogue) Summer, summer [LUKE] I did everything they asked, and for what?! This world will never be ours as long as our parents are in charge! Ares thought it was just about starting a war between the gods, but was always bigger than that! It's about ending them! [PERCY] You're the lightning thief!
