hidden by shadow I watch in awe of your light
you are the sun, and you shine so brightly.
I hide behind a solid foundation,
in places you could get lost in.
hiding so you wont see my darkness.
my body is charred and my wings scorched.
we used to be so close, I loved to see you.
Where did the time go?
The time where I was important to you.
The time where you would dip behind hills
just so your light wouldn't linger on me too long.
never wanting to let your light more than kiss my skin
and tan my complexion with your familiar smiles.
It is true, the sun brings great happiness and health.
But it also burns.

hidden by shadow I watch in awe of your light
you are the sun, and you shine so brightly.
I hide behind a solid foundation,
in places you could get lost in.
hiding so you wont see my darkness.
my body is charred and my wings scorched.
we used to be so close, I loved to see you.
Where did the time go?
The time where I was important to you.
The time where you would dip behind hills
just so your light wouldn't linger on me too long.
never wanting to let your light more than kiss my skin
and tan my complexion with your familiar smiles.
It is true, the sun brings great happiness and health.
But it also burns.
