Sundown Sundown it’s another night And I’m crying My spirit is dying My tears have been vanquished to a secret place Where only those without form can taste them Those with it, they call it a waste It’s so lonely, lonely Just then I remembered why I chose the hard way Why I rejected wearing a fancy tux with a "pretty pink bow tie" and hiding behind mmoma's legacy I remember clearly how and why I chose to write my own story And to build my very own dynasty of success  With no options and no money Floating along with the debris My only friends are the trees Sundown it’s another night And I’m trying But dreams can only get you so far Sinking like quicksand in the tar Wink one last time at the stars It’s so lonely, lonely With no people and no true home Floating along with the breeze Waiting for sun-up to put me at ease
