Hiding from the Sun

Текст песни I the Mighty - Hiding from the Sun

[Verse 1]
With respiratory responses
I'll bridge the gap from one breath to the next
Let me sink
I'll find oxygen unnecessary
My lungs, they no longer need the air from way up there
I'll find peace amongst these sunken ships
And bones that kissed away their prior skins
Well, they could not adapt
The potent hit of salt has lost its sting
Inside my chest and with this breath I am home

[Chorus]
And though it's neurotic to run from a cancer-born love
The undulating blue will keep my mind from thoughts of you
As I'm hiding from the sun

[Verse 2]
The moon has put the sun to sleep
As I rise to the surface to attain my night on the town
My feet will touch dry land again
As I break down and sink into the sand, underground
But here their eyes all read resent and I dig my way back up
Before they get the chance to waste a drug
Oh, but the city lights are much too bright
And my eyes they paralyze and dilate to compensate
[Chorus]
And though it's neurotic to run from a cancer born love
The undulating blue will keep my mind from thoughts of you
As I'm hiding from the sun

[Breakdown]
I can't live in-between, I must choose an extreme
A years worth of metaphors, couldn't find a meaning
I'll, I'll invite the infection through skin cells and chromosomes
Bones that grow hallow no marrow to decompose
I suppose, I suppose, I suppose I can never grow old
But these pirates and sunken ships
They're alive once the day is dead
And they don't forget, they don't forget, they don't forget
And one says to me, "My friend, re-invent
What you thought was dead because we have our fun."
Yeah, we had our fun as I was hiding from the sun
