sunstruck

I'm not tired I'm just wired for late nights staying up

Talking till the Sun gets stuck

Back up in the sky reminding me I'm still alive

I'd been looking for hope in a song

Or a run or a deep breath a punch or a two step beat

That could carry me away from absurdity

You'd been smoking lots and living in your head

'Cause at least you'd know where you last left it

I'm left waiting for you to wake up

But you're still dreaming of your next cup

But it's never quite enough

You pour it out but nothing will come

From an ever flowing cup

When you're too fucked to fill it back up

Left you alone or I did my best

Not to water a garden that didn't want to live

Therе were signs of life but it wasn't my land

And I had my own to tеnd and I'd forgotten it

Well I played it back in my head again and again

Not to do any harm just to try and understand

Couldn't find a path that made much sense

Just some half finished thoughts and a couple new plants

I went looking for myself by myself

And it wasn't close to easy but it sure did help

And my heart kept keeping time

Wondering where you were

And what was on your mind

But it's never quite enough

I can think it and write it but it's hard speaking up

I don't mind the sweet and wasted time

The taste of your lips and your smirk when you lie

But I try not to get in the way

And I try so hard I evaporate

A year passes and some seeds take root

Your garden is growing and mine's growing too

And the works not always fun

But it's better than staring at the weeds and the mud

We left behind some pain to get to the magic thing
