...And the Sun Disappeared from the Sky

I can’t be like you

Oh yes I can

I can’t see through you

But oh yeah I do

And friends cannot hurt you

Yeah tell me again

School’s just for eight years

Never so quick

Two years forward

And the sun’ll be gone

Like a tired banker

Biding his time

You can’t crash a moving car without something to hit

And I can’t run home without making sure I like it, yeah

The more we try

The less we get

From me to you

And you to him

From him to her

And her to us

This place is like

A high school bus

All my friends

Are starting to pretend

And I’m left here all alone

I’m calling my mom on the phone

Weren’t you that person

Who gave me the cure

I cannot trust it

But your eyes are so pure

Now I am lying

Face down on the road

As soon as I call you

You said give me a day, I said it’s yesterday

Tear out the pictures

And the words are still there

Just cause I’m unplugged

Doesn’t mean I don’t care, I promise I care

I’ve read all of these books

And what have I gained?

Scalpels and labcoats

Yeah I’m not myself

All my friends

Are starting to pretend

And I’m left here all alone

I’m calling my mom on the phone
