As this ole sun is gently rising

I feel the dawn's warm embrace

This light shining down on me

Taking me to some better place



This day can't be what it seems

As another night fades away

Into memories in moonbeams

And the words that I can't say



I've been living way too long

Bent down and on my knees

Now I'm going to stand strong

And get back up on my feet



I've been taking all this shit

Letting it weigh down on me

But now I'm just sick of it

Won't take much for me to leave



I'm so tired of all the love

When it doesn't mean a thing

I think I've just had enough

Of holding onto others' dreams



As this sun rises ever higher

I feel a new shine about me

In my heart burns new fire

And my eyes open wide to see



My ashes flying to the wind

For the life I feel is over

These wounds will never mend

Burning from your super nova



I've been taking all this shit

And it's been killing me inside

But now I'm just sick of it

Because that part of me has died



I've been trying to believe

One day things might turn around

Should I just hold on and see

As I lay face down on the ground



I'm ready to say good bye

To everything that I once knew

To the remains of this life

To the memories of you



You could've helped me up

But now I'm standing tall

And you know it's all because

You wouldn't let me fall



I've been taking all this shit

Blaming myself for what I've done

But now I'm just sick of it

As I'm taking in a brand new sun



I've been taking all this shit

And I'm just so sick of it

If the words could reach my lips

If my heart could just resist

If my soul could reminisce

Would it feel just like this

Could I really feel this bliss

Or is this all just another fix
