Lyrics to The Sun
It was all so blue
Got used to the way I looked, wearing a dark mood
And it all felt true
All the shadows and the bad notes I sang for you
Well, you wanted me small
So you could feel like someone at all
And I played along
And normalized, telling myself I was wrong
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
Used to just make do
On a steady stream of stress dreams and twisted truths
Now it's all so new
I'm uncomfortable any time I hear good news
I get the ache of healing and the pain of hurting confused
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Just like the dawn and my heart was worth
Breaking for
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
Got used to the way I looked, wearing a dark mood
And it all felt true
All the shadows and the bad notes I sang for you
Well, you wanted me small
So you could feel like someone at all
And I played along
And normalized, telling myself I was wrong
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
Used to just make do
On a steady stream of stress dreams and twisted truths
Now it's all so new
I'm uncomfortable any time I hear good news
I get the ache of healing and the pain of hurting confused
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Just like the dawn and my heart was worth
Breaking for
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
