[Verse 1]

You say that I don't understand

That it's how I survive

Now there's nothing that can touch you

I pretend that I really care

When I just shrug it all away

I know that it's wrong, but it keeps me breathing

[Chorus]

Staring at the sun

Watching so tall

I went blind and saw

Nothing at all

[Verse 2]

I wish that I could fly away

Walk on air

Really see things as they are

To show you everything

To learn from you

To rise and fall in my own time

[Chorus]

Staring at the sun

Watching so tall

I went blind and saw

Nothing at all

[Bridge]

But if I could, I'd fly you to the moon

And if I could, I'd chase away your gloom

Until you shone like a thousand suns, so bright

That when it was over, you'd laugh and pretend I was never even there

[Outro]

Lock up and run away

I won't betray you

Lost on a rainy day

In the sun
