It's a Lot Darker Under the Sun

Take me back to the days when everything was cold and gray
And not like diary handwriting, no just when sunshine meant something
Take me, come on and take me
I'm waiting in the wings for a chance
Bracing, instead of changing
A junkie for some deliverance

Pushing and pulling and stretching and burning into a man under your bright lights
Scraping by, coyotes at night, memories of bonfires and bluebird skies
Carving my name into the sandy shore before the trucks clear it away
"You're a fake. You're a hack. You're a phony"
You're mourning in the mirror again

God I'm questioning beliefs instilled in me, it's a shaky foundation for truth
Got a couple friends, almost lost them in the end to all the things I should have never said

Pushing and pulling and stretching and burning into a man under your bright lights
Scraping by, a coyote at night, memories of bonfires and bluebird skies
Carving my name into the sandy shore before the trucks clear it away
"You're a fake. You're a hack. You're a phony"
You're mourning in the mirror again
