Close to the Sun

I’m looking at scandal and I’m too close to the sun.
I said just about enough and I’m too close to the sun.
Im tasting upheaval still too close to the sun. When all I want is to mind my own business Im too close to the sun.
With every step I take Im too close to the sun.
If I tough it out with disquiet I’m too close to the sun.
