Staring At The Sun

Sitting in the shade
Watching as the sunlight fades
Can't look at your face
I'm constantly disappointed with your gaze

All your life you thought
You thought the stars were dead up there
All this time you might've thought
People would be better

Sitting by the trees
Watching all the clouds roll by
Clutching at my knees
Waiting for all my tears to dry

If I should ask again
I already know the answer
My questions feel mundane
But my meaning stems deeper

Staring at the sun already stings
Oh I wish you liked me more
The last thing I could ask for is your grace
What is it all for?

Why would I ask for anything more than what you offered me?
When did we realize all that we shared lives within our dreams?
What is it all for?

Walking down the way
Passing by the ivory trees
Nothing left to say
I'm too scared of being saved

Kissed me on the eye
I wake up with a deep breath in
I know you said goodbye
But it smells like you and it lingers despite you leaving

Staring at the sun already stings
Oh I wish you liked me more
The last thing I could ask for is your grace
What is it all for?

Why would I ask for anything more than what you offered me?
When did we realize all that we shared lives within our dreams?
What is it all for?

Staring at the sun
Hope the light cleanses me
Nothing left to say
I'm too scared of being saved

Even when I'm gone
Your face still corrodes my thoughts
If you wanted to leave so bad
You should've when there was no reason not to

Staring at the sun already stings
Oh I wish you liked me more
All I wanted to do was make you feel safe
What is it all for?

Why do I text you every day when I know you won't respond?
Fixating on fabricating when I know I should be moving on
What was it all for?
