WOODS OF YPRES - THE SUN WAS IN MY EYES: PART ONE lyrics

rate me

The sun was in my eyes

It blackened my sight

I was high with conviction

That I was invincible

The sun was in my eyes

I was stricken blind

I believed I could see through the dark

As I followed the un-guiding light

Pursuing the sun

While causes of mine are still alive

But barely carry on

Pursuing the sun

While friends lay in beds

Recovering from their recklessness

Give in to all the temptation

Give up on all your beliefs

Forget the feeling of the changing of seasons

Wishing that summer would go on forever

How long before it would get old

Would you miss looking forward to when it starts to get cold

The sun was in my eyes

It came through the trees

Consumed all of my mind

It was all I could see

The sun was in my eyes

Something became of my life

I left all else behind

And starred into the light

The sun was in my eyes

Putting it off for a rainy day

When it pours I'll stay indoors

To try to make things right

The sun was in my eyes

Thin ice on a summer's day

As I procrastinate

It falls apart and melts away

Pursuing the sun

While causes of mine are still alive

But barely carry on

Pursuing the sun

While friends lay in beds

Recovering from their recklessness

Going after the pleasures of summer

Betray the comforts of our dark little space

Believe their healing will cure all your trauma

Becoming the person you've claim to hate

True colors are shining through

Trading the black for the yellow, green and blue

The sun was in my eyes

It came through the trees

Consumed all of my mind

It was all I could see

The sun was in my eyes

Something became of my life

I left all else behind

And starred into the light

When summer came

I was overcome

Pursuing the sun and its hot summer days

On the long road on the way to the grave
