Raw distance to mask the pain of the heart
How far do you wanna take this?
Far enough to match the way you gave up
I'm ready for one more fake kiss
Easy to shelve, your hopes and your dreams
But it's easier when you can shove them onto me
So what's next?

Don't be surprised that I'd reject
All the hands that kept me fed, up
Without asking, much less beg
I've spent too much, received too little
If this ain't good enough
Then I am as good as it will get
'Cause once I walk out of that door
You cannot use my name again

Underneath the Sun, we mourn
Replay the tape until it fades
And your eyes grow sore
'Cause underneath the Sun, we burn
But we are also free

Rhe time is up, you said you've amounted to some
How long must I keep you on the shelf?
Long enough to make you proud, oberon
Is this any way to treat myself?
Reasonable, never were
But I, too, have never learned
Care can also be a curse

Underneath the Sunday morn'
We play the part until we break
And it's all we know
But underneath the Sun, we burn
Yet we are all so free

If you are someone with the means
And in no rush to be fed
Let your children try their dreams
And acknowledge where they're headed
Before you say: Not good enough
Know that they're as good as you will get
'Cause even though you know best
You will never be them

Underneath the Sun, we mourn
Replay the tape until it fades
And your eyes grow sore
Underneath the Sun, we burn
But we are also free

Remember
You are yours alone
To fly
