lyrics

Start your day off right,
You’ve been up all night with a bleeding impersonal,
Honest truth that’s been lingering – please cut the cord.
A spiral glimpse of hope,
Walking a tightrope.
Looking up could be your last remaining coping mechanism to stay afloat.

Don’t over-blink, you’ve got stars in your eyes.
It’s like day when they go out but without the sun –
They’re infectious, I’m impounded.

Now here’s the after flow.
We’re dreaming but I cannot ask for your hand,
Like a fuel laden rag or a fist gripping sand.
But there’s a light, please don’t stare at it often.
It takes time just to stitch what has been opened.

Don’t over-blink, you’ve got stars in your eyes.
It’s like day when they go out but without the sun –
They’re infectious, I’m impounded.
Don’t over-blink, you’ve got stars in your eyes.
It’s like day when they go out but without the sun –
They’re infectious, I’m impounded.
Don’t over-blink, you’ve got stars in your eyes.
Day when they go out but without the sun,
Day when they go out but without the sun
What’s a day without the sun?
