Lyrics

Dying in the Sun

[Verse 1]

Do you remember

The things we used to say?

I feel so nervous

When I think of yesterday

[Pre-Chorus]

How could I let things get to me so bad?

How did I let things get to me?

[Chorus]

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying...

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying...

[Verse 2]

Will you hold on to me?

I am feeling frail

Will you hold on to me?

We will never fail

[Pre-Chorus]

I wanted to be so perfect, you see

I wanted to be so perfect

[Chorus]

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying...

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying in the sun

Like dying...
