Staring Down the Sun

We've stared at the moon, all we can

We wished on the star that never was

We've spoken the words, best un-said

Looked over our paths with a critical eye

The rise and fall

We watched it all

We're the 'also ran'

The 'doing the best we can'

Blinded by staring down the sun

We've been to the wall, we know it still

We've been the one that never was

We've read for the parts, felt that chill

Looked into their eyes for the very last time

We rise, we fall

We've seen it all

Sometimes a little too closely

We're the 'Also ran'

The 'Doing the best we can'

Blinded by staring down the sun

We're the 'Also ran'

The 'Doing the best we can'

Blinded by staring down the sun

We're the 'Also ran'

The 'Doing the best we can'

Blinded by staring down the sun

We're the 'Also ran'

The 'Doing the best we can'

Blinded by staring down the sun
