As Sure as the Sun

So now that everybody’s gone

You see no change has come

In every song you’ve ever sung

You find the words were wrong

But now the time is gonna come

And there’s no feeling lost

For everyone who could’ve loved

And made me not to love

And all the time

I thought your words were mine

You held me down

As sure as the sun

You held me down

As sure as the sun

Now I could see into your eyes

But there’s no compromise

For anyone you oculda saved

But never recognized

And now your worries gonna fall

But I won’t help at all

For everyone who sees the place

Who knows they can’t belong

And all the time

I thought your words were mine

You held me down

As sure as the sun

You held me down

As sure as the sun

You’ve taken away

Much more than you gave

What keeps me down

I’m lost in a rage

No one can explain

What keeps me down

What keeps you down

So now that everybody’s gone

You see no change has come

In every song you’ve ever sung

You find the words were wrong

And every paper that you read

You feel your spirit grieve

For everyone who’s gonna fall

The distance another leaves

And all the time

I thought your words were mine

You held me down

As sure as the sun

You held me down

As sure as the sun

You’ve taken away

Much more than you gave

What keeps me down

I’m lost in a rage

No one can explain

What keeps me down

What keeps you down
