Sunburn Lyrics by Fuel

Sunburn

1998

[Verse 1]
The sky was dark this morning
Not a bird in the trees
Silence hung suspicious and anxious
Like a blanket-covered scream

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You were gone
You were not there for me

[Chorus 1]
And I cursed the sky
And begged the sun to
Fall all over me
This life's not living, baby
Living ain't free
And if I can't find my way back to me
Let the sun fall down over me
Let the sun fall down

[Verse 2]
All my friends are searching
Quiet, desperately
Look into their eyes, you'll see the faithless crying
"Save me, save me, save me"

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And what are they to feel?
Who are they to be?
What am I to do with, do with me?

[Chorus 2]
Just let the sun fall all over me
This life's not living, baby
Living ain't free
And if I can't find my way back to me
Let the sun fall down over me
Let the sun fall down

[Bridge]
Until my eyes cry out
Till my head is free from doubt
Till my lungs sigh right out
Till I'm wiser
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 3]
Let the sun
Fall all over me
This life's not living, baby
Living ain't free
And if I can't find my way back to me
Let the sun fall down

Let the sun
Fall all over me
This life's not living, baby
Living ain't free
And if I can't find my way back to me
Let the sun fall down over me

[Outro]
Let the sun fall down over me
Let the sun fall down over me
Let the sun fall down over me
