Setting Sun Lyrics

It's been so long, I start to stutter

Right and wrong

Wash past as one

All I've known

Are dreams and graveyards

All I see

Is the setting sun

Tender years, they loom like tombstones

Foggy fears

They weigh a ton

All I've known

Is like a compass

Pointing towards

The setting sun

Starlets and thieves watch the bit players leave

Another role, another town

Most every day someone passes away

Without even making a sound

A chill in the air makes the cupboard turn bare

Turns the sane world upside down

All of it buried underground

And what is lost, is everything that they've done

Every sunrise is a journey

Heading towards the setting sun

I was born, between the stair steps

The ladder torn

Each and every rung

All I've known

Are wilted flowers

Bowing down

To the setting sun
