The sun was out, but I was hiding in a corner
I saw the shine, but I wouldn't let it get to me
Oh, the summer knows I never cared much for her
But all day, she's in my face, and she won't let me be
So I went out, to make another cup of coffee
I know that I'm not a moneymaking factory
Oh, it goes to show, the food and drinks are plenty
But today, I know there ain't nothing left for me
As the morning calls
I worry where my shadow falls
And now my head's inside
A war I thought I left behind
It's probably best to stop it
When people talk, I know their minds ain't speaking
They mean it well, but I can tell that they are on to me
Over all the roads I won't follow the beacon
A sorry state, but I won't pray for your empathy
As the morning calls
I worry where my shadow falls
And now my head's inside
A war I thought I left behind
It's probably best to stop it
