They said if you don't let it out
You're gonna let it eat you away
I'd rather be a cannibal baby
Animals like me don't talk anyway
Feel like an ambulance
Chaser of fate
Pray I could replace her
forget the way her tears taste,
Oh the way her tears taste
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
The world may call it a second chance but when I think back it was more of a relapse
Anticipations on the other line and obsession called while you were out
Yeah it called when you were out
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
Asleep in the hive
I guess all the buzzing got to me
But I'm still alive
At night your body is a symphony
and I'm conducting (conducting)
Said if you don't let it out,
you're gonna let it eat you away
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
You're gonna let it eat you away
I'd rather be a cannibal baby
Animals like me don't talk anyway
Feel like an ambulance
Chaser of fate
Pray I could replace her
forget the way her tears taste,
Oh the way her tears taste
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
The world may call it a second chance but when I think back it was more of a relapse
Anticipations on the other line and obsession called while you were out
Yeah it called when you were out
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
Asleep in the hive
I guess all the buzzing got to me
But I'm still alive
At night your body is a symphony
and I'm conducting (conducting)
Said if you don't let it out,
you're gonna let it eat you away
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you

This can mean that the band is splitting up, like others say, because of the rapid change of time. For example, the band first formed and made songs in their high-school years, so maybe school is causing them to separate after the summer.
But this song can be very confusing, like the phrases "There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends", "I will come back to life, but only for you", and "The world may call it a second chance but when I think back it was more of a relapse", though the last two seem to connect with each other.
But overall, all of these lyrics seem to be based on the quick passing of time.
You're gonna let it eat you away
I'd rather be a cannibal baby
Animals like me don't talk anyway
[People say you shouldn't let your feelings fester, he says he'd much rather do that because he's not the person to talk]
Feel like an ambulance
Chaser of faith
Pray I could replace her
forget the way her tears taste,
Oh the way her tears taste
[He's chasing the faith that it could last, but he can't replace "her" (I still have an inkling that it's a Ryden song) or forget the sadness he caused her.]
Put another ex on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
[He can see the end of their close relationship, he had a confrontation with the person and said things the other person may have thought was just a ruse, but he meant it and he would only go back to his normal self for that person.]
The world may call it a second chance but when I think back it was more of a relapse
Anticipations on the other line and obsession called while you were out
Yeah it called when you were out
[When the band broke up it was their second chance, but they went back to a similar style of their first album, hence 'relapse'. Fans are anticipating and obsessing over what's going on with the break-up, but the person just doesn't seem to be around]
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
Asleep in the hive
I guess all the buzzing got to me
But I'm still alive
At night your body is a symphony
and I'm conducting (conducting)
[Everyone's comments finally got to him, whether it be fans or other people. He's saying he's still himself, and that they have something sexually musical between them]
Said if you don't let it out,
you're gonna let it eat you away
Put another x on the calendar
Summer's on its deathbed
There is simply nothing worse than knowing how it ends
And I meant everything I said that night
I will come back to life,
But only for you
Only for you
It's definitely not that.
as for me, i think the song is generally about loving someone and having to move on....
"They say if you don't let it out, your gonna let it eat you away"
"Put another X on the calendar, Summer's on its death bed" - They split up in the summer
"The world may call it a second chance, but when i get back it was more of a relapse" - The second album not doing as well, Brendon returning to more of the first albums style.
