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
|
all worth 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 why
|
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 why
|
the shadow of the sun
|
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
shadow of the sun
|
sun
|
sun
|
