lyrics

You are not the sun, you are not the sun
The light I've seen was fluorescent
The tunnel doesn't have to end

Can you sing in the choir of your masses
Among the chaste you'll reside
Your actions profane, you will hide
I've reduced the memories to ashes

And the lake in which I'll drown
Grows dark with storm clouds aloft
Granted no strength to swim across
An angel dances in gown

Static, so she screamed
Upon my ears of infamy
"Why would this happen to me?"
Became another unanswered plea

You are not the sun, you are not the sun
Last year's adolescent
A tunnel for one to descend
