Trip Around the Sun

I took a trip around the sun
Just to see what I've become
Another year has slipped away
And the face in the mirror has turned to gray

But why do I still shine
When the dawn has turned from night?

I took a trip to see the stars
And find out who we really are
I returned with a pocket full of dust
And the answer was "all of us"

But why do I still burn
When all the coals have been raked aside?

I tried to run from the fool that I've become
But that fool just ran away

By back is strained from this world full of weight
But I keep holding on
