lyrics

I Miss the Heat of the Sun

As I trip forward to the end of time
Double-flip over when I get excited
Everything I choose
It’s like my ego only wants what’s best for you
Everything I do turns out to be
The thing my ego wanted too

I miss the heat of the sun

Metamorphosing all of my heart through
Savoring the time when I adored you
Paralyzing everything that I do

I could strike, throw a punch though I could hardly land it
Pick a fight, when my ego can no longer stand it
Everything I do,
It’s like my ego only wants what’s best for you

I miss the heat of the sun

Metamorphosing all of my heart through
Savoring the time when I adored you
Hanging back, the sun still beaming towards you
Paralyzing everything that I do

You’re not the only one that I can’t lie to
You’re not the only one that I can’t lie to…
