lyrics

I want to wake up next to the sun
And feel the blistering heat on my skin
'Cause I've been burning on the inside for so long
Everything else seems frozen
So it goes, on and on feel like I'm drifting along
Throwing pieces of myself at the night

I want to wake up next to the sun
And feel my eyes recoil from the light
I want to be struck blind by belief
In the face of undeniable signs
So it goes, all I've seen is empty space in between
And I can't tell if it's truth or a lie

We're all just bodies suspended in irony
Desperate for control of our trajectory's end
Theories and figures make no relative difference
Gravity is going to get us all in the end

I want to wake up next to the sun
Or at least burn out on my way to get there
