No Sunshine Songtext
von Hard Target

Yeah
No rain, no sunshine

Now everything I know has been told in the perfect of rhymes
If you′re hungry, you gotta eat, you gotta work to survive
But if the truth is underground and at the surface it lies
You're thinking that that purpose isn′t worth it to try

My hopes count, it ain't in reach
Introduce me to the finish
Well, I'm just trying to make ends meet
A never-ending cycle stuck in place on a ten-speed

Praying for an ounce of energy, but I′m empty
Beating on the ground, you don′t hear a sound
That's why I get high, somewhere near the clouds
The more they push me down, then the harder I go

I said my real life′s calling, but I got her on hold
She even left me a couple of texts, telling me to call her back
There's too much on my shoulders knots falling in my lap
They teach you by directions, they ain′t taught them to react


Too late to leave the bait, and now you're caught up in the trap
With the medicine and healthcare, my thoughts are elsewhere
Food stamps and welfare, my problems are still here
Light comes in, you want it to stay
But then it all goes black, and it suddenly changes

Now watch it all change in the drop of a dime
All I really know, I got a lot on my mind
But everything goes black when you′re not in the light
And there ain't no sunshine, there ain't no sunshine

If I ever leave, then the country goes
Everything I know′s down a dusty road
If everything ain′t pretty, it ain't glitter and gold
And there ain′t no sunshine, there ain't no sunshine (no)

And there ain′t no sunshine, no glittering gold
And there ain't no punchline, no end of the joke
It′s the same old crunch time, we get up and go
And I know it, that one line, now listen and know

So I'm staring at the sun with nothing else but this hope in my heart
Start to count away the days you're alone in the dark
Try to fix it because you broke it, and you know from the start
Try to pick up all the pieces because you tore it apart


And everything could change in the drop of a dime
If you can′t see what′s really happened, then you got to be blind
I said it, kept on adding up, all my problems combined
Now I stand outside my thoughts like I'm out of my mind

If I add this spark slight, listen to it hard
Because I′m going to light this candle just to get me through the dark
They say it's brighter on the other side
But when you′re uninvited, you still wonder why

Now watch it all change in the drop of a dime
All I really know, I got a lot on my mind
But everything goes black when the night and the light
And there ain't no sunshine, there ain′t no sunshine

If I ever leave, then the country goes
Everything I know is down a dusty road
Everything ain't pretty, it ain't glitter and gold
And there ain′t no sunshine, there ain′t no sunshine

And there ain't no sunshine
And there ain′t no sunshine
No there ain't no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine
Ain't no sunshine
There ain′t no sunshine

No there ain't no sunshine
And there ain't no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine
No there ain't no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine (yeah)
No there ain't no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine

I can almost make it out, but my vision is blown
It's like a strobe light slash, you get a glimpse and it′s gone
You struggle to fit in where you ain't meant to belong
And when everyone around you leaves then you end up alone

But then the light comes on and you take a look around
Not a person to be found for the time you took a bow
Yeah, and you don't get it to start
And I guess you′ll never realize why you live in the dark

Watch it all change in the drop of a dime
All I really know, I got a lot on my mind
But everything goes black when you′re not in the light
And there ain't no sunshine, there ain′t no sunshine

If I ever leave, then the country goes
Everything I know's down a dusty road
Everything ain′t pretty, it ain't glitter and gold
And there ain′t no sunshine, there ain't no sunshine

Watch it all change in the drop of a dime
All I really know, I got a lot on my mind
But everything goes black when you're not in the light
And there ain′t no sunshine, there ain′t no sunshine

If I ever leave, then the country goes
Everything I know's down a dusty road
Everything ain′t pretty, it ain't glitter and gold
And there ain′t no sunshine, there ain't no sunshine

No there ain′t no sunshine
No there ain't no sunshine
No there ain't no sunshine
No there ain′t no sunshine
Ain′t no sunshine
There ain't no sunshine
