Shadow of the Sun
I only tell of sunny hours.
I'll let that echo in your head.
I won't leave any time unsaid.
I know you wouldn't miss that,ok?
My life will flow away when flowers close.
And I will go into Lunar sleep.
She's not my goddess,so don't judge me.
Don't you come wasting your time,ok?
Please don't come at night.
When the moon is bright.
I'll be awake again when the sun comes.
Because the sun eats the moon when the moon can't eat it.
I'll turn from hour to hour,I won't let you down.
The dark will be too gone to harm me.
Good flourishes from the light.
When bad forces it to embark on the journey through the dark.
Liars,liars,every shadow by then is on fire.
Can't be trusted.
Take it from me and my own sliver of darkness.
Keep on watching me,watch my shadow moving.
This shadow is of my own.
But not of the same control.
A body gave me this soul.
Ball of fire,great solar.
Moving through the sky until dark.
It controls my movements until the black appears.
When the world isn't blind but lost its time.
I can't help but to be so wise again.
I'll show you how time descends.
24 hours and my shadow is shaking.
I am time's wings and I keep on breaking.
Someday I'll stop when the sun stops shining.
It will soon join in a realigning.
As my shadow and I will.
