The Setting Sun - Broadside

The light goes out and leads us nowhere

Fading voices fail to be heard

Emptiness it wraps me up and tears into my skin

When darkness doesn’t promise light

And sorrow grips your throat at night

There’s gotta be

Something I can change

Cause I’m done pretending I’m okay

I must have lost my mind

Putting my faith into borrowed time

Told myself I could run

Away from the setting sun

The setting sun

The circles underneath my eyes

A badge from all my sleepless nights

And at the corner of my

Bed

The reaper waits to tuck me in

The moon is hanging low it’s almost blinding

I’m drowning from the raging sea inside of me

Drown inside of me

I must have lost my mind

Putting my faith into borrowed time

Told myself I could run

Away from the setting sun

The setting sun

It’s getting cold outside

But I haven’t felt a thing this whole damn year

I lay in bed and pray the night

Takes me far away from here

I hear a voice in my head

Tells me to sink

But I’m still learning to swim
