Another empty tomorrow, another bird that's fallen out of the sky
Sunbleached and defeated, an army of white flags flying high
Bones cracked and shattered, their feeble wings masked with false hope of flight
Broken hearts and dead dreams, we're told there's no limit to how, how high

The endless sight of grey clouds, a glass ceiling that holds in the sky
The death of all things eager, a draining climb that ends beneath soil and dirt
We spent our lives in cages, it wasn't supposed to be this way
In a drought we pray for rain, but the weather never changes, we're stuck in place

And back in the beginning, the world was at our feet
But we hit the ceiling at full speed, falling back to Earth, we accept defeat
The dreams that we'll never realize die with us in a shallow grave
I just wanna be something, I just wanna be someone, but I guess I'll behave

I need to stay far away from that place
Make a fool of myself trynna save face
And I know I'm batshit to some
But they've never lived in the land with no sun
And I hate when I hurt anyone
Pondering down the barrel of this old gun
I wanna vanish without a trace
And go somewhere where no one's ever seen my face

Why am I so rash?
Get hurt and land up lashing back
I hate myself for that
Being okay with my choices never lasts

A dark sky I lay underneath
And in this place not a thing can bring me peace
The blanket of clouds never seems to cease
I see no stars and my mood is getting bleak
I wish I'd stay far away from that place
Make a fool of myself trynna do anything
And I know I'm probably batshit to some
But they've never lived in the land with no sun

They've never lived in the land with no sun
They've never lived in the land with no sun
They've never lived in the land with no sun
They've never lived in the land with no sun
I wanna hide myself until the damage is done
When I'm trapped in the land with no sun
I wanna hide myself from each and every one
When I'm bound to the land with no sun
