Standing In The Sun
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're the dark to light
You're never satisfied
You only know the things that will fail to be
A pessimistic one
Who sees the end to come
Where every joy is lost to a tragedy
And still you wonder why you cannot find your peace today
'Cause you were meant to live
So much more than this
Now if only you could see
You could be standing out the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight
Still your heart beats cold and grey
Every day
You know it brings me down
The way you drag around
Your heavy heart just like a stone
Well, keep your misery
Don't put it all on me
'Cause I've got problems of my own
You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
So keep your cloud of darkness and doom off my parade
Yeah today
And if I go, you know I set off a spark
I would burn it out, I would burn it all away
If you're a fire jaded, cold calloused heart
Someday I'll find a way
You could be standing out the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight
Still your heart beats cold and grey
Every day
You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
Someday I'll steal the spark
I'll burn all down away
I'll find a way
