Daylight, on my shoulder, makes me feel alive.

You kept me standin in your shadow.

And its a cold, cold place to hide.



* I'm runnin away from this messed up place.

I'm breakin free.

Yeah yeah.



** I'm tired of staring at the sun.

Can't stand the way u burn my eyes so I can't see.

Stealing every breath I breathe.

You push me into overdrive.

I guess that I was just too blind to overcome.

You can't see anything.

When you're staring at the sun.



I know, you won't let me.

Just turn and walk away.

You tie me up, kick me around.

Try to kill my dreams and break me down.

But I won't hang around.



[Repeat * , **]



I was staring at the sun.



Daylight on my shoulder.

I know its time to run.

Yes, I know its time to run.



[Repeat **]



Yeah, staring at the sun.



You took everything while I was staring at the sun.
