[Verse 1]
You think you're the sun, steadfast and shinin'
We all live under you happily
But just like the sun, you burn ultraviolet
Nobody sees how you're hurtin' me
[Chorus]
I just want out of your orbit
Screamin' again how you're so damn important
Painted yourself in the portrait
I thought I would be there too
But there's only room for you in your universe
[Verse 2]
You want me around 'til it's inconvenient
You want a medal so people can see it
Wave it around, you're such a good man
Nobody understands
[Chorus]
I just want out of your orbit
Screamin' again how you're so damn important
Painted yourself in the portrait
I thought I would be there too
But there's only room for you in your univеrse
[Bridge]
Where еveryone asks if you've had a good day
The neighbours all stop and they cry and they wave
And they close down the block and they throw a parade
'Cause you made it to work and you woke up today
And it doesn't matter, the people you shatter
Still lookin' down from the top of your ladder
Wonderin' why there's so standin' ovation
Over the mess you created
[Chorus]
I just want out of your orbit
I run away but you pull me back towards it
Painted yourself in the portrait
I'll never be there too
There's only room for you in your universe
