Sunrise

I used to hate the sun
because it shone on
everything I’d done.

Made me feel that all that
I had done was overfill
the ashtray of my life.

All my achievements in days of yore range from
pathetic to piss-poor,
but all that’s gonna change.

Because here comes sunrise.
Yeah, here’s your sunrise.

I used to hide from the sun,
tried to live my whole life underground.
Why’d you have to rise and ruin all my fun?
Just turned over, closed the curtains on the day.

But here comes sunrise.
Yeah, here’s your sunrise

when you’ve been awake all night long
and you feel like crashing
out at dawn.
But you’ve been awake all night, so
why should you crash out at dawn?
