Sun Shy Lyrics by Mackenzie Johnson

2021

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be here, I just wanna go home
Closing all my curtains, turning all the lights off
Pour myself a glass of something a little sweet but strong
Just fuel to distract me

[Verse 2]
But the light of day, it peeks through
I just focus on the shadow
And the worries that I'm hiding, with a mask
I'm fucking shallow
And you'll never really know me
'Cause I'm the one who has to own me
Who could ever love what lies underneath?

[Chorus]
The sleepless girl who thinks too much
Who's infinitely in a rush
But fears the future at the same time
Always the first to second guess
Can never put mistakes to rest
So all-consuming, like a gray sky

On the days I'm feeling sun shy
On the days I'm feeling sun shy

[Verse 3]
I hold their opinions closer to my own ones
Listen to the wicked, breathe it into my lungs
It's my strange addiction, and I don't know how to fix it
Once upon a time, I wasn't just...

[Chorus]
The sleepless girl who thinks too much
Who's infinitely in a rush
But fears the future at the same time
Always the first to second guess
Can never put mistakes to rest
So all-consuming, like a gray sky

On the days I'm feeling sun shy
On the days I'm feeling sun shy

[Bridge]
So sweet on the outside, eat me up
I need you to fill my cup
Just so I can empty it again
I'm high on the voices in my head
Telling me I should quit
The sun is out and I'm the fool who squints
I get in my own way again

{Chorus}
The sleepless girl who thinks too much
Who's infinitely in a rush
But fears the future at the same time
Always the first to second guess
Can never put mistakes to rest
So all-consuming, like a gray sky

On the days I'm feeling sun shy
On the days I'm feeling sun shy

[Outro]
On the days I'm feeling sun shy
Why do I feel sun shy?
