Audioslave - Shadow on the Sun lyrics
[Audioslave - Shadow on the Sun lyrics]
Once upon a time i was of the mind
To lay your burden down
And leave you where you stood
You believed I could
You'd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts
And tell you what you saw
And never say a word
But now all that is gone over with and done
Never to return
And I can tell you why people die alone
I can tell you I'm a shadow on the sun
Staring at the loss looking for the cause
And never really sure nothing but a hole
To live without a soul
And nothing to be learned
And I can tell you why people go insane
I can show you how you could do the same
I can tell you why the end will never come
I can tell you I'm a shadow on the sun
Shapes of every size move behind my eyes
Doors inside my head bolted from within
Every drop of flame lights a candle in
Memory of the one who lived inside my skin
And I can tell you why people go insane
I can show you how you could do the same
I can tell you why the end will never come
I can tell you I'm the shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Sun, sun
To lay your burden down
And leave you where you stood
You believed I could
You'd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts
And tell you what you saw
And never say a word
But now all that is gone over with and done
Never to return
And I can tell you why people die alone
I can tell you I'm a shadow on the sun
Staring at the loss looking for the cause
And never really sure nothing but a hole
To live without a soul
And nothing to be learned
And I can tell you why people go insane
I can show you how you could do the same
I can tell you why the end will never come
I can tell you I'm a shadow on the sun
Shapes of every size move behind my eyes
Doors inside my head bolted from within
Every drop of flame lights a candle in
Memory of the one who lived inside my skin
And I can tell you why people go insane
I can show you how you could do the same
I can tell you why the end will never come
I can tell you I'm the shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun shadow on the sun
Sun, sun
