Waiting For The Sun To Rise

from Mono Vodou by Whitebrow

/

lyrics

Can't see the light
Even though I'm told it's shining bright,
Floating somewhere high above the ground,
But a heavy heart can sometimes keep you down

I start to think,
'Ignorance is bliss,' that's why they drink,
Kool-aid from the cup of broken truth,
Cause I know you know what you don't know can't hurt you

I spend my life
waiting for the sun to rise,
waiting till the day I see my own reflection in your eyes.

What is this life?
Just a violent, random rolling of the dice?
Or maybe a set path that we're all on?
Or maybe I should stick to singing songs

Then you walk in,
absolve me of my sins with a red lipped grin,
I don't know where we go after we die
There's evidence of a promised land in your eyes,
oh my.

I spend my life
waiting for the sun to rise,
waiting till the day I see my own reflection in your eyes.

What is this life?
Still waiting for the sun to rise,
waiting till I'm canonized and misrepresented when I die.

Hold, Hold, Hold, Hold on.
