Staring At The Sun

Offspring

If I seem bleak


Well you'd be correct


And if I don't speak


It's cause I can't disconnect


But I won't be burned by the reflection


Of the fire in your eyes


As you're staring at the sun





When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway


When I escaped I didn't feel like I got away


There's more to living than only surviving


Maybe I'm not there, but I'm still trying





Though you hear me


I don't think that you relate


My will is something


That you can't confiscate


So forgive me, but I won't be frustrated


By destruction in your eyes


As you're staring at the sun
