Most of us

Have learned to trust

What we see with our own eyes

But with blinders on, you hardly realize

That out of view

It's still true

Even when no one's around

We can stumble and fall down

Sunshine burns your skin

Sometimes the things we love so much

Just eat us up from the outside in

Oceans blue will drown

I could find a way to live with your ghost

But I won't be happy till I leave this town

It's just as well

It's hard to tell

'Cause my hindsight's crystal clear

But the view from then's not like the view from here

If you are passed

Through the looking glass

The important parts appear

But the details start to smear

Sunshine burns your skin

Sometimes the things we love so much

Just eat us up from the outside in

Oceans blue will drown

I could find a way to live with your ghost

But I won't be happy till I leave this town

When I leave this town

I move the point of view I found

The sun seems to go down

But it just burns while we all spin around

I ran fast

But I came last

'Cause although I set the pace

It was rigged from the start that I'd lose this race

Gone and done

Before it had begun

Seems the cup's half-full till it's overflowed

Then you run and run till your heart explodes

Sunshine burns your skin

Sometimes the things we love so much

Just eat us up from the outside in

Oceans blue will drown

I could find a way to live with your ghost

But I won't be happy till I leave this town

(Sunshine)

I won't be happy till I leave this town

(Sunshine)

Won't be happy till I leave this town
