Shadow Of The Sun   





Once upon a time  

I was on a mind to lay your burden down  

and leave you where you stood  

you believed i could  

you'd seen it done before  

i could read your thoughts  

and tell you what you saw  

and never say a word  

but now that is gone  

over with and done  

and never to return  

 

i can tell you why  

people die alone  

i can tell you why  

the shadow on the sun  

 

staring at the loss  

looking for the cause  

and never really sure  

nothing but a hole  

to live without a soul  

and nothing to be learned  

 

i can tell you why  

people go insane  

i can show you how  

you could do the same  

i can tell you why  

the end will never come  

i can tell you on  

the shadow on the sun  

 

shapes of every size  

move behind my eyes  

doors inside my head  

bolted from within  

every drop of flame  

lights a candle in  

memory of the one  

who lived inside my skin  

 

i can tell you why  

people go insane  

i can show you how  

you could do the same  

i can tell you why  

the end will never come  

i can tell you on  

the shadow on the sun  

 

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

shadow on the sun  

sun  

sun
