Staring at the Sun

Daylight on my shoulder

Makes me feel alive

You kept me standing in your shadow

And it’s a cold, cold place to hide

I’m running away from this messed up place

I’m breaking free, yeah yeah

I’m tired of staring at the sun

Can’t stand the way you burn my eyes, so I can’t see

Stealing every breath I breathe

You push me into overdrive

And I don’t need this kind of high, 'cause now I’m done

You took everything while I was staring at the sun

I know you won’t let me

But just turn and walk away

And tie me up, kick me around

Try to kill my dreams and break me down

But I won’t hang around

I’m running away from this messed up place

I’m breaking free, yeah yeah

I’m tired of staring at the sun

Can’t stand the way you burn my eyes, so I can’t see

Stealing every breath I breathe

You push me into overdrive

And I don’t need this kind of high, 'cause now I’m done

You took everything while I was staring at the sun

I was staring at the sun

Daylight on my shoulder

I know it's time to run

Yes, I know it's time to run

I’m tired of staring at the sun

Can’t stand the way you burn my eyes, so I can’t see

Stealing every breath I breathe

You push me into overdrive

And I don’t need this kind of high, 'cause now I’m done

You took everything while I was staring at the sun

Yeah yeah, staring at the sun

You took everything while I was staring at the sun
