Sundown

from Run Up River by Reno McCarthy

/

lyrics

I hate it but I don’t care
I find a way to be there
I tried running away
But along you’d escape
As a thought in my mind

Thought you’d wanna know now
A song is all I know how
It’s a shot in the dark
With a pen as a gun
And a dithering arm

All that I want
Lights up in you
Everybody goes
And I begin as someone new
Dry in the rain
Hopeful in vain
Everything I hold
Now begins to break again

Up is still a let-down
Hoped it would’ve come ‘round
At the thought of our minds
And our hearts and our souls
And our bodies aligned

With dawn another sundown
A thought is all I’ve got now
And the hurt of a man
Who’s awaken again
By the break of his mind

All that you can
Lights up in me
Taken with the vision
I surrender all I see
Heart of a child
Violent and wild
Flashes of a future
That I made up into mine

All that I want
Burns up in you
Everybody goes
And I pretend you need me too
I’ll fight it away
Forget your name
I just wanna sleep tonight
Without you in my head
