Delorean Sunset

Your open hands are trembling through the dark
Reaching for an answer like a light around the bend
(But they come back empty)
You've closed your eyes and turned to face the east
Ignoring all your sense, tossing caution to the wind
(The willfulness offends me)
You've got to know there's so much more than
You'll allow yourself to see, but you don't want to hear the truth
(At least not one that's dissident)
If you would just accept the guiding hand of one who isn't you
You'd find the dreamland of your youth
(Where it lies moldering, malcontent)

Your sunward eyes
They hide behind the clouds that just won't seem to roll
Open wide
And let the sunrise make you whole

You walk around in darkness self-imposed
Holding onto values that are dated at the best
(And you just dig your heels in)
Whatever happened to the willingness to let the pain flow through
So you could lay it all to rest
(I can't believe you've done this)
This cage you're locked inside is nothing but
A box inside your head, and you hold the only key
(You've got to help me help you)
Once you relinquish all the guilt you've saved
Then the morning comes, and we'll finally get to breathe
(It's time to start up something)

Your sunward eyes
They hide behind the clouds that just won't seem to roll
Open wide
And let the sunrise make you whole

Walking blind
We've tried to cross this road, but can't seem to get home
But can you try to listen

Your sunward eyes
They hide behind the clouds that just won't seem to roll
Open wide
And let the sunrise make you whole
