The sun shined on me today
And I found a reason to live again
For the moment
I am the caterpillar out of the cocoon
And the next moment I am crawling
A profound distance
Across a shattered room
Because the sun shines on me today

You had yet to notice me
And I was unafraid to roam
The grass stood tall and at attention
Down the aisle and beyond
Believing that behind me
My winged cape, still weeping,
Will learn to stand alone
I may not see tomorrow
But the sun shines on me today

Carry on to farther markers
While we may never see the shore
Create my solar system stemming
From the burning concrete floor
For life is for the moments
We do not hide away
Even dying, I feel alive
The sun shined on me today
