Shining Like a Burnt Out Sun
Shining like a burnout sun
The sun gets dimmer every time I wake up.
I wish I could turn the brightness off all together
If I was selfish I wouldn’t care
I’d take my pills until the day was gone.
Truthfully Somedays I’d rather be alone than here all together
Pretty crappy thing to say I know.
But what’s the point.
I get tired of the trying
I wish I didn’t have people who gave a crap
I wish I could push them away and it be easy
Honestly though the sun will still keep shining
And I’ll keep waking up.
Waiting for the sunset.
