Sunburn Songtext
von Ian Miles

I think I′ve caught up with the sun
And it burns my eyes and the pit of my lungs
There's a beauty in this moment I want to share with you
I fear the end is drawing near
The sky is grey and these people share my fear
And there′s water in my eyes in the dead of the night again

But it seems that every time I turn
A light, I am my doctor's best friend
Yeah, but he spits all the truth, turns my aches and pains
Into something he believes in, some sad refrain
I'm a storm in the sky and I will rain until I die

But I am not, I am not, I am not
Just gonna sit here and take it on the chin
′Cause sometimes I′m angry and sometimes I'm sad
But this time you′ve got the wrong kid, oh


Today I think I'll stay inside
The world is better off without me in its eyes
A rusty bucket for a face and breath that could kill a man
And now you think you′ve found a cure
A pretty girl in the shape of a door
And you listen to her cry, be a blanket in the dead of night

But you see, that is your crux, you were always just some friendly guy
Yeah, but I'm done, yeah, I′m done, all I want is to be loved
And to make it to that door just to see what's going on
I will slowly open up and pray the handle comes unstuck

'Cause I cannot, I cannot, I cannot
Seem to focus without knowing what′s beyond
The last one, it led to the edge of a grave
So this time I must pick the right one

They invited me, you know, to go with them
And I thought, "Now this would be crossing a line"
Which I seem to be doing more and more these days
′Cause you know what? The lines are, are only in our heads
In actuality, there are no lines at all
It's really fucking terrifying if you think about it
