Lyrics

Stare at the Sun

[Verse 1: Telle]

Oh how I've missed this, I've been left out

And now I'm sentenced, sent to live without

And I always thought that I knew best, only time will tell

Can you spot the difference because I'm living in hell

[Chorus: Telle]

Time's my mistress, my star-crossed lover

Tell me right now, "get my shit together"

Maybe I'm naive, a little undone

But I'll just laugh as I stare at the sun

(Stare at the sun)

[Verse 2: Telle]

Back and forth in my mind

Witnessing a great divide

In and out, always doubt

I'll find you

[Chorus: Telle]

Time's my mistress, my star-crossed lover

Tell me right now, "get my shit together"

Maybe I'm naive, a little undone

But I'll just laugh as I stare at the sun

(Stare at the sun)

[Bridge: Danny Worsnop & Telle]

Wait a minute, if I’m so far gone

What makes you think that I'm

Capable of change, capable of being

Anything than what I am

Maybe I'm a fuck up, maybe I'm the one

That breaks the mold, maybe I'm a

Genius, or a higher being, bringing the world to it's knees

I guess we'll never know

Never know

[Chorus: Telle & Danny Worsnop]

Time's my mistress, my star-crossed lover

Tell me right now, "get my shit together"

Maybe I'm naive, a little undone

But I'll just laugh as I stare at the sun

(Stare at the sun)
