Lyrics

I bought a skeptic's point of view
from a man certain about his stake
In a world he never loved
I guess the earth then feels the same
I could have lied to my brothers
and told them they are what they claim
But on a fool's chance coin toss
The truth came

Cause you try to be the lonely kid all the girls think what a waste
Then you try to be the artist a ghost at the window's break
You are everything and nothing a vessel for what is not yet explained
Be everything that is loved be the sun

I bought a second hand toy car
from a child finished with this hate
He thought if he sold all his treasure
maybe the earth then he could save
His parents lied to him forever
in the hopes they could spar him pain
But on a fool's chance coin toss
the truth came

Cause you try to be the lonely kid all the girls think what a waste
Then you try to be the artist a ghost at the window's break
You are everything and nothing a vessel for what is not yet explained
Be everything that is loved be the sun

Just keep them coming
I'm at the poison bar
Where the neon lights shine bright like stars
Where the old men tell tales with bitter hearts
Don't blame the skeptic he just plays his destined part

Cause you try to be the lonely kid all the girls think what a waste
Then you try to be the artist a ghost at the window's break
You are everything and nothing a vessel for what is not yet explained
Be everything that is loved be the sun
Be the sun be the sun be the sun be the sun be the sun
