daylight on my shoulders
makes me feel alive
you kept me standing in your shadow
and it's a cold cold place to hide
i'm running away from this messed up place
i'm breaking free yeah yeah
i'm tired of staring at the sun
can't stand the way you put my eyes so i can't see
stealing every breath i breathe
you push me into overdrive
and i don't need this kind of light coz now i'm done
you took everything while i was staring at the sun
i know you won't leave me
but just turn and walk away
i'm tired of when you kick me around
trying to kill my dreams and break me down
but I won't hang around
i'm running away from this messed up place
i'm breaking free yeah yeah
i'm tired of staring at the sun
can't stand the way you put my eyes so i can't see
stealing every breath i breathe
you push me into overdrive
and i don't need this kind of light coz now i'm done
you took everything while i was staring at the sun
daylight on my shoulders
i know its time to run
yes i know its time to run
i'm tired of staring at the sun
can't stand the way you put my eyes so i can't see
stealing every breath i breathe
you push me into overdrive
and i don't need this kind of light coz now i'm done
you took everything while i was staring at the sun
yeah yeah staring at the sun
you took everything while i was staring at the sun
wouldn't it be nice if we were older
then we wouldn't have to wait so long
and wouldn't it be nice to live together
in the kind of world where we belong
you know it's gonna make it that much better
when we can say goodnight and stay together
wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
in the morning when the day is new
and after having spent the day together
hold each other close the whole night through
happy times together we've been spending
i wish that every kiss was neverending
wouldn't it be nice
maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
we could be married
and then we'd be happy
wouldn't it be nice
you know it seems the more we talk about it
it only makes it worse to live without itbut lets talk about it
wouldn't it be nice
well this is gonna be a boring entry...

怎么隐藏
我的悲伤
失去你的地方
你的发香
散的匆忙
我已经跟不上
闭上眼睛
还能看见
你离去的痕迹
在月光下
一直找寻
那想念的身影
如果说分手是苦痛的起点
那在终点之前
我愿意再爱一遍
想要对你说的不敢说的爱
会不会有人可以明白
我会发着呆
然后忘记你
接着紧紧闭上眼
想着那一天
会有人代替
让我不再想念你
我会发着呆
然后微微笑
接着紧紧闭上眼
又想了一遍
你温柔的脸
在我忘记之前
心里的眼泪
模糊了视线
你已快看不见

coming out of my cage
and i've been doing just fine
gotta gotta be down
because i want it all
it started out with a kiss
how did it end up like this?
it was only a kiss
it was only a kiss
now i'm falling asleep
and she's calling a cab
while he's having a smoke
and she's taking the drag
now they're going to bed
and my stomach is sick
and it's all in my head
but she's touching his chest now
he takes off her dress now
let me go
and i just can't look
it's killing me
and taking control
jealousy
turning saints into the sea
turning through sick lullaby
joking on your alibi
but it's just the price i pay
destiny is calling me
open up my eager eyes
i'm mr brightside
